Longshore 50th Anniversary '60s Rock 'n Roll Dance Party

May 1960: months into the new decade, Westport makes perhaps the most significant land acquisition in its history – Longshore Club Park!  Today we celebrate 50 years enjoying Westport's crown jewel of recreation.

Join us for a 50th anniversary bash on Thursday, May 20, 7:00 to 11:00 PM,  at the Inn at Longshore, for a fabulous rock and roll dance party rocking to the era of Motown, Beatles, 'Stones and the rest of the British Invasion.  Dress up in your favorite '60s togs and dance to Cracked Ice, a happenin' band specializing in playing the great sounds of this era.
