The City of Weatherford will host a Porch Party 6 p.m. at Heritage Park, across the street from Weatherford City Hall.

The Jake Bowers Band will host the concert at the Porch Party. When talking with Jake Bowers, lead singer of the band, he said he’d been performing at concerts since he was 12. Bowers was born and raised in Helena.

“Both of my parents were touring musicians, my dad was a lead singer and my mom played also,” Bowers said.

The band will begin playing 7 p.m. Along with the concert there will be food trucks and games the party is scheduled to be done by 11 p.m.

There also will be a ribbon cutting for the Bulldogs and Friends Dog Park. The ribbon cutting will be 6 p.m.

“Our whole emphasis from the beginning was to try and draw attention to Route 66,” Mayor Mike Brown said when talking about the reasoning behind the party.
