Crystal Lake Blast On The Beach -- Saturday

Entertainment for all ages will be a huge part of the BMO Harris/Crystal Lake Park District Blast on the Beach. Tomorrow,  Saturday, August 10 from 3-9 pm, Crystal Lake Main Beach (300 Lakeshore Drive, Crystal Lake) will be the hot spot to enjoy one of the final summer weekends before the beginning of school.  Rain Date: August 11.
With over 25 years experience entertaining and astonishing audiences of all ages, Circus Boy will appear on stage at the Main Beach Band Shell from 5:30-6:15 pm. Circus Boy Bobby Hunt is one of America’s most unique and popular variety performers. Bobby’s unique talents and unusual family of Circus performers were featured on an episode of television’s Ripley’s Believe it Or Not, and Bobby was a featured performer with the world famous Ringling Bros. Circus, traveling the globe and entertaining audiences from all walks of life with his unforgettable brand of stunts and physical comedy.
Festival goers will have a chance to grab a bite to eat from several local food vendors and restaurants while waiting for the musical entertainment to take the stage for the evening from 6:30-9 pm. The Lounge Puppets are a tribute to the 80’s Hair Band. The music of the Lounge Puppets is an incredible heart pumping, fist-thrusting, scream out loud, head banging trip back through time! Taking the term "Tribute Band" to a new level, The Lounge Puppets have raised the bar, packing all the large clubs, venues, & festivals in and around the Chicagoland area. Lounge Puppet will thrill the crowd with one of the best light shows around and all of the hair, leather and attitude that made the very bands they are covering.
In addition to the performers above, Blast on the Beach features a Kids Fun Fair with over 20 games and activities, a Craft Fair, a Treasure Hunt (real gold coins and other prizes buried in our beach!),Bags Tournament for cash prizes, a beer/wine garden and food vendors from some of your favorite local restaurants.
