ESTEVAN — Party in the Park, held following the FrameTech Classic's Dave Price Memorial Horse Race at the TS&M Woodlawn Golf Club, attracted about 300 people on Aug. 4.
Regina-based rock and pop band Mascara, fronted by the award-winning songstress Melissa Mannett, provided entertainment at the new Binzebo at Mets Stadium in Woodlawn Regional Park. Park manager Maureen Daoust said it was their first time experimenting with the format and location of what was traditionally the annual Beach Bash at the park's Boundary Dam site.
"It was the first time that we did this at Woodlawn. We thought we would try something new this year instead of Beach Bash because we have a new permanent structure, Binzebo, located by Mets Stadium-Lingelbach Field," Daoust said. "We wanted to showcase our new venue for events, and we just thought that maybe 小蓝视频 closer to town [would be beneficial]."
The park collaborated with the golf event organizers and had quite a few golfers attend the party.
"There's lots of golfers but there's also lots of people that come out to watch the event," Daoust said. "It was a little bit chilly and windy, so that may have deterred a few people from coming, but we were pleased with attendance."
She noted Binzebo worked great for the event and they received a lot of positive feedback about the venue. Now, the board will assess all the pros and cons of the two summer party locations and will decide where they will host one next year.
Bizebo is available for half-day, full-day and weekend rentals, Daoust noted.
"We wanted to create something that would be beneficial for small group users. We get requests for birthday parties, little company barbecues, baby showers, all kinds of things," Daoust said.
She also thanked all volunteers and sponsors involved with the event.
"A shout out to all of our volunteers who helped out with the event because we cannot do it alone and to my staff for helping with some of the setup. Captive Oilfield Rentals donated their light tower to us. Energy Electric did some electrical work for us. Dominos Pizza also came out to provide some food," Daoust mentioned some of the event sponsors.
"We're always pleased that we get support from the community. We're really appreciative of it."
