SUMMER’S HOTTEST CONCERTS UNIQUELY THURSDAYS Photography by Mike Ellis

undreds of area residents beat the rain to enjoy the opening night of Uniquely Thursdays in Burlington Park in downtown Hinsdale on June 11. Hosted by the Hinsdale Chamber of Commerce, Uniquely Thursdays is Hinsdale’s summer concert series, held on Thursday evenings for ten consecutive weeks during the summer. Heartache Tonight, a Chicago-based Eagles tribute band, performed on the main stage. Despite portentous skies, families still enjoyed musical entertainment, refreshments, and games and activities at sponsor booths that aligned Chicago Ave. Sponsors included Hinsdale Bank & Trust and Normandy Remodeling. Children also delighted in playing and running on the large hill between the street and the Hinsdale Memorial Building. After the skies opened, some attendees departed, while others remained to take in a concert in the rain. Uniquely Thursdays continues through Aug. 13, and runs from 6 to 9 p.m.
