St. Croix Valley Community Band Concert

The St. Croix Valley Community Band with director Kris Tjornehoj is a popular RiverFest event.  This FREE concert celebrates community and the scenic St. Croix River with something for people of all ages.

You won’t want to miss this fun-filled family evening! Families are encouraged to bring a picnic blanket or lawn chairs and settle in to enjoy the show.

Our RiverFest partner organizations and sponsors will have booths with information and demonstrations before the concert starting at 6pm. The Concert begins at 7pm and will include musical selections that celebrate our wild and scenic St. Croix River.

Kids will enjoy entertainment by The Bubbler, Steve Russell, with a display of giant bubbles at the pre-concert display booths starting at 6 pm.

The RiverFest theme song will be played for a sing-along. View the lyrics to the RiverFest, It’s the Best! song.

See the RiverFest mascot Scrappy on display! Created by sculptor Mary Johnson, the splashing bass figure is metal armature. Each year students from the Phipps Center for the Arts “Just Add Water” art and science class help complete the sculpture by processing and re-purposing the litter collected in Hudson during the river cleanup to create a new “skin” for Scrappy.
