SUMMARY:Glenn Miller Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:If you’re “In the Mood” for real swing music\, this is the one that delivers it the way it was meant to be heard. Glenn Miller Orchestra brings its national tour to Old Saybrook for a night built around one of the most recognizable catalogs in American music. The program leans into era-defining hits like “In the Mood\,” “Chattanooga Choo Choo\,” and “Moonlight Serenade\,” songs that didn’t just top charts in their time… they helped define the entire big band sound that still echoes through jazz and pop today. \nWhat sets this show apart is how closely it sticks to the original style. The 15-member orchestra\, along with its lead singers and vocal group\, recreates the arrangements with that unmistakable precision and warmth Glenn Miller’s band was known for. Tight horn sections\, smooth transitions\, and that steady\, danceable rhythm bring tracks like “A String of Pearls\,” “Tuxedo Junction\,” and “Pennsylvania 6-5000” back to life in a way that feels authentic rather than updated. It’s not a reinterpretation… it’s a faithful recreation of a sound that shaped an era. \nThere’s also real history behind what you’re hearing. The orchestra has been touring continuously since 1956\, performing more than 200 shows a year and carrying forward a legacy that began in the late 1930s when Glenn Miller’s recordings dominated radio and ballrooms across the country. Live\, it becomes more than just a concert… it’s a time capsule with energy\, where longtime fans and new listeners meet in the same space and feel that music click into place. If you’re looking for a night of classic swing done right\, this is as close as it gets.

SUMMARY:Old Saybrook Memorial Day Parade
DESCRIPTION:Old Saybrook Memorial Day Parade returns on Memorial Day morning with a community procession and ceremony honoring the service and sacrifice of American military members. Parade assembly begins at 9:30 a.m. at the Stop & Shop parking lot off Elm Street before stepping off promptly at 10 a.m. The route travels across Route 1 to Main Street and continues toward the Veterans Memorial Monuments on the Town Green\, where the morning’s memorial program will take place. \nThe annual Old Saybrook Memorial Day Parade brings together veterans groups\, local organizations\, families\, and residents for one of the shoreline town’s most meaningful civic traditions. Spectators typically gather throughout downtown as marching groups move through the historic center of town beneath American flags and the atmosphere of Memorial Day weekend along the Connecticut shoreline. While the event carries the familiar feeling of a hometown parade\, its focus remains firmly rooted in remembrance and honoring those who lost their lives in military service. \nThis year’s memorial program will feature Gil Simmons\, U.S. Marine Corps veteran and chief meteorologist for WTNH\, serving as master of ceremonies. In the event of rain\, the parade may be canceled\, but the memorial ceremony will still be held at 10 a.m. inside Old Saybrook Fire Department headquarters at 310 Main Street\, ensuring the community’s observance continues regardless of weather. \n
