GIBSON CITY – It's a scene that could have been a Norman Rockwell painting. A tree-shaded park featuring a historic pavilion built for Chautauqua gatherings. It bustles with young and old alike, gathering for a summer tradition.
The Gibson City Community Band performs at the city's North Park at 7:30 p.m. each Thursday evening through July 17.
