Music by the Pentwater Civic Band & Other Local Musicians
The Pentwater Civic Band is comprised of local residents and visitors who play together for the love of music. You'll see musicians of all ages--from students to old-timers. Many members of the Scottville Clown Band join in on a regular basis, though not in costume for this occasion.These Civic Band Concerts at the Village Green have been a tradition in Pentwater for over 60 years--and for good reason! The cheery music along with the lovely setting makes for a wholesome, enjoyable, FREE evening. There's no charge to linger and listen.

Pets are welcome!
If your family includes a four-legged member, you'll be glad to know that well-behaved pets are welcome on the Pentwater Village Green. Just please be considerate and clean up after them. It's amazing how well dogs seem to appreciate the fresh air and extra attention children are happy to give them.
