sponsored by Dover Renaissance, Inc., a nonprofit volunteer organization dedicated to improving the public's image of Dover Township as well as its
overall quality of life. In addition to this concert series, some of the group's other projects include the Dover Street Clock, the Story Poles of Dover, the landscaping at the Blackwell-Prospect Triangle and the
Doors of Dover holiday decorating contest.
The more than 200 concertgoers enjoyed some familiar Buffett songs like "Margaritaville," "Brown-Eyed Girl," "Volcano," "Tin Cup Chalice," and
"Cheeseburger in Paradise." Convenient for those who attended with children was a fenced-in playground right on the gazebo grounds.
A flood of memories came rushing back to this writer upon hearing these songs; memories of a trip to the warm and wonderful Florida Keys back in
1993 when we visited Key West (very tropical) and Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Café. All we ate and drank that week was conch burgers, chowder and fritters with Margaritas on the rocks! And how could I forget that
awesome Key Lime pie!
The two remaining concerts of the season feature DeSol (Latin rhythm and American pop) on July 28, and Nice n' Easy (a tribute to Frank Sinatra)
on Aug. 4, both at 7 p.m.
