Lunchtime on Wednesdays will be one of the best times to be in Jefferson. Chews Jefferson will continue this year with a new twist on last year’s promotion. A Tower Tunes Live concert will be played each Wednesday in June and July from 12:15 – 12:30 pm. Several local musicians have volunteered to play their choice of tunes on the Mahanay Bell Tower. Rick Morain will kick off with the first concert on June 3.
With COVID-19 precautions, the organizers encourage residents and visitors to purchase take-out meals from any restaurant in the community. Specific restaurants will not be targeted for each week with no special meals planned.
Promotion co-chair Angie Gingery suggested, “Set a goal of a new restaurant each week as you enjoy a different concert. People can gather safely throughout the square to enjoy their lunch and listen to the Tower Tunes Live concerts.” Suggested locations are the Bell Tower Plaza, Thomas Jefferson Gardens, Sally’s Alley, or in their cars throughout the area.
The promotion team of Jefferson Matters: Main Street is working with the Bell Tower Community Foundation to offer these special concerts.
Persons who want more details about the program can contact Peg Raney at Jefferson Matters: Main Street’s office at 110 W Lincoln Way, call 515-385-3585 or email director@jeffersonmatters.org.
