Phil Barone & the Cruisers closes Night on the Township
HOLLAND – Phil Barone and the Cruisers rocked the gazebo at Springfield’s Summer Series 2024 at Springfield Township’s Homecoming Park on Friday.
More than 225 guests gathered to listen to the band and its energetic sets that pumped up the crowd with their tribute to Jim Morrison and the Doors.
The local band recently performed their Jim Morrison tribute in February for the Dyslexia Education Center, a local non-profit organization. Lead singer Phil Barone serenaded the crowd with high energy and his captivating vocals, and the Cruisers followed with a set of live instruments and back-up singing.
The event, sponsored by the Springfield Township trustees, included several food trucks, gaming tables provided by Full House Entertainment, and an adult beverage garden.
Trustee chairman Andy Glenn reminded guests that this was the 20th event coordinated by the township in 2024.
“We began in January with a variety of activities related to the Total Eclipse of the Sun – from educational programs to glassblowing. Our fire department even offered free CPR training,” he said.
“After April 8, we shifted to our new Summer Series, which included the annual Freedom Celebration/fireworks, the addition of the Wicked Wheels Car Fest and finally Night on the Township,” he went on to say.
Tonight was the final gathering of Summer Series 2024.
