Still time to enjoy Clayton’s Concerts in The Grove

CLAYTON, CA (July 17, 2024) — Our 17th annual Concerts in The Grove season is off to a great start.

The entertainment has been excellent, and the attendance has also been very good.

The season opened with Leo Vigil and the Rockin’ Horns, then R.W. Smith and the California Cowboys, and Mixed Nuts on June 22.

The performance scheduled for July 6 featuring Strange Brew was canceled due to the extreme heat. It has not been determined if we will reschedule the show at the end of the season, or possibly schedule it for next year. We will keep you posted.

Be sure to join us at The Grove park for one of the remaining four concerts at 6 p.m. July 20, and Aug. 3, 17 and 31. The band schedule is available on the city website at claytonca.gov.

To continue celebrating Clayton’s 60th anniversary, the community enjoyed a wonderful July 4th that started with the Clayton Valley Rotary Pancake Breakfast at Endeavor Hall. Then, everyone was entertained by the annual July 4th Parade, with Ed Moresi as grand marshal. All in attendance had a great time celebrating Clayton’s 60th anniversary and Independence Day.

We did not have a council meeting on June 18, but the City Council continues to interview candidates for city manager. We will keep you posted on our progress.

Again, as your mayor, I will continue to work hard to maintain Clayton’s small-town charm and character while running an open and transparent local government.

You can reach out to me directly with any questions or concerns at 925-673-7316 or JimD@claytonca.gov.

I look forward to working with you. And remember to keep hydrated and find a cool place.
