Community Fun & Business Collaboration
Concerts on the Green are a prime example of the Windsor Chamber of Commerce, a non-profit organization, and it's long history of creating and maintaining programs that support and promote Windsor businesses while providing entertainment for the public. The residents of Windsor love the free, open-air concerts. And our local businesses do, too. Some businesses sponsor a concert and invite their employees to enjoy it as a group, some even offer each one a complimentary Chamber gift certificate to use at a local restaurant or shop that night. Chamber gift certificates are available to the public and make great gifts. They're accepted like cash at over 40 different businesses in town. The concerts are truly community events with wide appeal as many people from Windsor and other towns bring their families and friends to the center for dinner before the show. Many also take advantage of the Chamber's Summer Passport program to get stamps at restaurants, concerts and other attractions in town to try to win a TV, a Kindle, Summerwind tickets or a Restaurant/Attraction Gift package. Lots of great things happen on Thursday nights in Windsor. In addition to the concerts, there's the new Read on the Green Grass Program at 6:15 pm and First Town Downtown's Farmers' Market at 3:30 pm, all on or near the green. It's a great day to come out and enjoy some family-friendly entertainment. Summer concerts this year are especially varied and fun.
