Dear NEohioPal Subscribers:

On Saturday, July 17, any Polkateer that shows up with his or her own
accordion will gain free admission to the "Polka Party" festival, which
will take place between 3 p.m. and 10 p.m. at Lock 3 Live! Park and
FirstEnergy Stage -- located on Main Street in downtown Akron, next to
the Akron Civic Theatre.=20

Emcees Big Chuck and Little John will lead these accordion-toting polka
partiers in a resounding play-along segment during the festival, making
the event the "Night of a Thousand Accordions."=20

Sponsored by KeyBank, the Polka Party is also predicted to be the scene
of unrestrained kielbasa and pierogi-eating contests, polka dance
competitions, and all-encompassing roll-out-the-barrel revelry.=20

It is rumored that the fest will be the site of the World's Largest
Chicken Dance, considering hundreds of polkateers will flock to Lock 3
Live! and FirstEnergy Stage for this polka-sonic event.=20

Brave Combo, Bob Kravos & The Boys In The Band, the Eddie Rodick
Orchestra, The Joe Fedorchak Orchestra, Tower City Drive, and Majestic
Sound will fuel the polka-mania with even more live entertainment.
Ethnic foods and baked goods will supplement the usual festival fare.

There is a $10 admission charge to the festival for those who attend
without an accordion. Admission includes all concerts and entertainment
associated with this event, with the exclusion of inflatable rides for
children, where tokens will be sold.=20

Admission to the festival is free for children under 48 inches. If you
bring a canned food item to Lock 3 park to benefit the Akron/Canton Food
Bank, you can buy one ticket at full price and get the second ticket for
half price.=20

Cash-only tickets are sold at the Lock 3 Live! gates 30 minutes before
show time. For advance tickets, call the Akron Civic Theatre Box Office
at 330.253.2488 between 11 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday through Friday.
Tickets are also available at E.J. Thomas Performing Arts Hall Ticket
Office at 330.972.7570, or through Ticketmaster Centers or
Charge-By-Phone at 330.945.9400.=20
