PLAN FOR A RAIN DATE
There’s always the possibility that the event will be rained out. In case of inclement weather, the following Thursday will be the rain date. So, just in case of cancellation, mark your calendars for Thursday, August 29th.
BATHROOMS DURING THE EVENT
Bathrooms are located at the Smith Park Pavilion. Homeowners will not be offering the use of their bathrooms.
Did you attend our first Doty Island PorchaPolooza Event last year? We had such a positive response to the free family-friendly event that we are doing it again. Mark your calendars!
THE BANDS, SPONSORS, & HOSTS
PorchaPolooza would not be possible without our community residents and businesses! DIDC found Doty Island residents that live around Smith Park to volunteer their front porch and electricity for the 3-hour event. DIDC sought the music acts and matched each act with a business sponsor. This year we were able to coordinate ten music acts for Doty Island’s event.
Last year many attendees stated two hours was way too short for this event. To be able to extend the event by one hour, we will be staggering the acts. Half of the music acts will play from 5:30pm to 7:30pm and the other half will play from 6:30pm to 8:30pm.
SAFETY FIRST, PLEASE
We care about your safety! We encourage you to bring your bikes, walk or use other transportation besides vehicles.
Please stay in the yard or on the sidewalk. Avoid standing in the street or blocking any traffic.
ARTISTS IN THE PARK
“Artists in the Park” will also be occurring in the same space as PorchaPolooza. Local artists (all styles of visual and fine artists) will be working on pieces and sharing their work from 5pm—9pm. If you’d like to be involved with this part of the event, please contact
