Wharf Day
Each summer the community comes together for a day of fun and relaxation enjoyed together along the waterfront. Every year we have a number of fun activities planned including fishing off of the wharf, mud sliding in the river, the Avondale Motor Show, recreational activities for the kids and adults, a BBQ, a dance and fireworks to top it all off!
Wharf Day - Saturday, July 27th, 2019
Save the Date!
Avondale's annual Wharf Day celebration is happening on July 27th.
Location: Newport Landing waterfront, Avondale
This Wharf Day we invite you to join us for a picnic at the park. Bring a blanket and a sun shade and enjoy an afternoon filled with activities on the field and in the shipyard. The afternoon will be prime time for mud sliding and after 7pm until dark will be ripe for fishing.
Member's of Avon River Arts will have lots of art supplies on hand for activities like building fairy houses, painting rocks and making paper lanterns. Join us in the boathouse for live music with Open Mic during the afternoon and starting at 6pm, performances by Chairman of the Blues and the No Name Blues Band. Sunset is at 8:49, so fireworks will follow shortly after, once it is perfectly dark. The No Name Blues Band will be ready to rock after fireworks are finished.
As usual the boathouse boys will be rocking the BBQ in support of community events at the museum, like our weekly community BBQ every Friday night!
In advance of Wharf Day we are compiling a collection of recreational equipment to remain on site after Wharf Day and be accessible to the community throughout the season. We invite anyone who has an extra stick, ball or deck of cards lying around to feel free to bring along with you when you arrive on the 27th.
We're hoping we can collect a number of donated items before we purchase anything new. Some suggested items of interest are frisbees, soccer balls, washer toss, darts, badminton rackets and a net, disk golf, ball hockey, chess board, cribbage board, board games, hula hoop, croquet, bocci ball... the list could go on for ages, this is just a start!
Things to spend your hard earned money on:
Drinks
Bbq
Avondale Swag
Free will offering...we love you!
Event closes by 2am
See you there!
