Summer in the Park - SpotlightThe chair of Summer In The Park is pretty pleased these days with wristband sales approaching 5,000.

That’s about halfway to his goal.

The price went up from $25 to $35 (plus HST) on June 1st, but John Strang says the committee has decided to keep the momentum going by keeping the $25 price for businesses that buy 25 wristbands or more until the end of this month.

Strang says there’s a real buzz going on in the city.

Last year only 3,400 wristbands were sold in total, and only 200 by the end of May.
