On July 26th from 6 -8pm, Wildfire served up a smorgasbord of tunes ranging from ABBA's Dancing Queen to Lee Greenwood's God Bless the USA for an enthusiastic crowd on the final night of the Lynnfield Rotary Concert series. The talented vocalists of the group led the way with a wide-ranging repertoire of songs including Simply the Best by Tina Turner, Gloria by Laura Brannigan, Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison, Giver Me Some Lovin’ by Richie Valens, Old Time Rock ‘n Roll by Bob Seger and many more, to the delight of the largest audience of the year.

The weather couldn’t have provided a better backdrop for Lynnfield Rotary's final Concert. The energy was exhilarating as young and old enjoyed the inviting evening atmosphere with family and friends.

Lynnfield High's Interact handled food and beverages and were so busy they asked that the food and beverage tables remain up until after the final song.

 
The balloon man, Tim Levesque, who provides his artistic handiwork, also found himself having a very busy night.  Kids were lined up waiting for his balloon creations through the event.

Five raffle winners happily accepted their prizes during intermission.

Wildfire cemented their position as the anchor of the July Concert Series.  They were a fitting way to bring the successful 2023 season of 4 Wednesday evening concerts to a memorable conclusion.
