UNIQUELY THURSDAYS Photography by Mike Ellis
Hundreds of area residents attended the opening Uniquely Thursdays concert in Burlington Park on June 16. Chicago-based Sonic 7 entertained on the main stage, performing iconic female rock hits, as many audience members set up blankets and chairs across the lawn. Local businesses and organizations such as Hinsdale Bank & Trust, DuPage Medical Group and the Robert Crown Center for Health Education offered games and activities for children. Kids also enjoyed scrambling around the hill in front of the Hinsdale Memorial Building. Area vendors and volunteers supplied food and refreshments along Chicago Ave., which is always closed off throughout the duration of the concerts. Organized annually by the Hinsdale Chamber of Commerce, Uniquely Thursdays will continue weekly through Aug. 11. For more information about Uniquely Thursdays, visit hinsdalechamber.com.
