July 22: Zac Lawless: Well known local musician Zac
Lawless brings a fresh blend of rock, blues, folk, hip hop, funk
and soul to the stage. Armed with his acoustic guitar and unique
vocals, he plays a variety of musical styles which he likes to call
"acoustic blue folk funk for the soul." Inspired by The Beatles,
Doors, Dylan, James Brown, Bob Marley, Grateful Dead, and Pearl
Jam, he strips a song down to the root and gets to it’s true
essence. More on Zac at www.zaclawless.com
August 26: Donna Antonow: The best description of Donna
comes from a quote by Bob Dorough: “Open your ears and arms to a
new stylist. Donna Antonow has a way with a song - her own way.
Besides her soul-jazz vocals, she delivers scintillating piano
accompaniments, arrangements and solo stylings. I DIG IT!” Donna is
accompanied by astounding bassist Tony Marino. Donna performs in
the PA, NJ, NY area and has CDs available at Amazon.com. Visit
www.donnaanotnow.com for more on Donna’s music.
Sept. 23: Bonnie Childs - Enjoy classic standards from the
1930’s through the 1960’s. Bonnie’s vocals, Jesse Green’s keyboard,
and Daniel Gonzalez’s percussion do more than justice to the songs
of Cole Porter, George & Ira Gershwin, Billy Holiday, Harold
Arlen and more! Bonnie and Jesse are well known local musicians who
perform at COTA, The Deerhead Inn, weddings, resorts, and other
venues. Daniel performs in NY and locally with Jesse Green, Vinny
Bianchi, and others. Easy listening for a relaxing end of summer
evening. Community Day 2007 Stroud Township Community Day will be

Jay Albertson Park, named after retired Township Supervisor Jay
Albertson, is the cornerstone of Stroud Township recreation
facilities. This park, locally known as "the duck pond" provides a
lovely setting for the Stroud Township Municipal Building. Parking
is available in the parking lots, but not on the streets. The park
has playground equipment.
Park visitors are asked to NOT feed the ducks and geese, as this
encourages more to stay there than the pond can support.
Besides fouling the water quality, it is detrimental to the birds'
health, and their droppings are tracked all over the grass and
playground equipment. These are unsanitary conditions for children
to play in. A goose produces approximately one pound of droppings
per day. Residents may see temporary visual deterrants over the
next couple of years and changes in the landscaping to try to deter
the geese from staying permanently at the pond.
