It's going to be quite the party under the Bluewater Bridge this weekend!
The Point Edward Optimists are holding their annual Bridge Bash event Friday and Saturday with live musical entertainment, a beer garden, and food tent.
If you're a country music fan, you'll enjoy Borderline and The Barn Burners on Friday night. Chemical Valley & Retrospect are set to perform on Saturday.
Event organizer Rob Oberholzer says all proceeds from their $5 ticket entry and beer sales go towards a future park addition.
"Proceeds for the entire event are earmarked for a splashpad we're going to put in under the bridge, slated to break ground this coming April," says Oberholzer.
Optimists believe they'll need to raise $100,000 for the project.
Around 3,000 people are expected to attend over the weekend, and possibly even more thanks to the FireFit competition also taking place both days.
