Anchor Church is hosting its annual Anchor Summer Jam at Memorial Park on Saturday, August 22, with free admission for the public. The event features live music, local food and vendor booths, games, teen activities, and a community cornhole tournament, according to event organizers.
The Summer Jam is structured as a fundraiser, meaning while entry and most activities are free, attendees have the opportunity to contribute to the church's programming. Memorial Park, situated along Last Chance Gulch near the Helena Civic Center, gives the event a central location accessible to residents from across the city.
The event runs throughout the afternoon, and organizers say attendees are welcome to drop in for part of the day or stay the full stretch. For families looking for a free late-summer outing before the school year starts, it lands on the calendar at a useful time. Details on vendor and performer lineups are expected to be announced closer to the date.
