NorState Federal Credit Union is proud to announce its support of Madawaska’s Music in the Park series. This popular summer event, newly named NorState’s Music in the Park, will be held every Thursday evening from 6 – 8 PM, beginning mid-June through September in Bicentennial Park.

“Looking at our sponsorship goals for 2019, we wanted to brand our credit union with local events that brought something to the community, to businesses and people, and to young and old alike,” said Denise Duperré,  NorState’s Executive Marketing Director.

The music series will feature a variety of local musicians throughout the summer season. Many of the musicians will perform for free or at a reduced rate.

“Through a generous donation from the credit union, we are able to focus on raising funds to bring in local artists, update outdated equipment, increase attendance, and welcome more businesses to participate during the NorState Music in the Park series,” said Jane Corbin Carter, the Music in the Park Coordinator.

The NorState Music in the Park series is free and open to the public and will be held rain or shine. In the event of inclement weather, the series will be moved to the town’s Multi-Purpose Center.

“Branding our credit union with a local music series, and giving support and encouragement to a successful annual, weekly event, is a winning combination for our communities,” added Duperré. “Our credit union cares about its members and the communities we live and work in. So, like The Beatles song, ‘I get by with a little help from my friends,’ we need to pull together and create an environment where everyone is welcomed.”
