LITTLE GEMS
Concerts in the Park season is here.
Get ready for this family favorite, a Thursday night summer tradition in Lake Geneva. Flat Iron Park is the perfect location, offering a picturesque view of the lake. The Brunk Pavilion is the perfect stage for the crowds to lay a blanket, unfold a lawn chair, or cut a rug. The grounds of the park are always filled with locals and visitors kicking back in the park, enjoying a perfect summer evening.

The Life of Brian.
What’s going on in that little town we’ve been covering called Hebron? The one where the blond female police chief (temporary) is hoping for appointment as full-time and permanent. She’s also an attorney, not practicing, of course. What a find she is, but the town still has not appointed her, instead assigning two board members to do a search.
They don’t need any stinking search in the GSR’s editorial board view, but what the heck. Brian is the guy who has been cutting hair forever there, in the place right next to the wonderful Dari burger joint. The town is full of characters, and Brian is one of them. As are the couple who own the Dari, Steve the terrific bright new mayor, the fantastic city clerk, and of course, Juanita, the police chief from heaven. The guys who run the Trump store are also class acts, Steve and John. America’s small towns have not only people of latent quality living and working in them, but entertainers as well.
If you get a haircut from Brian, you’ll learn more about Hebron than almost anybody else knows, as he’s the familial result of generations living there. Christine and her husband, right next door to the barber shop, serve the best burgers in the state. The men Chief Juanita is finding to be the officers on the newly reorganized police force are also truly amazing in quality and intellect. Hebron is becoming quite an entertaining and reassuring place to visit as a reporter on the Geneva Shore Report staff.
