Free Live-Music Coming to Library Park on Friday, July 24

On Friday, July 10, SCI Social Capital Inc.’s 2026 Summer Concert Series kicked off with Melo Green (melogreen.com), who brought lively psychedelic R&B and jazz-influenced sounds to the new series location at Library Park in Woburn.

Over 90 community members of all ages enjoyed the weather that held out, refreshments provided by Empower Woburn (empowercafes.com), and activities including lawn games and SCI’s Social Connection Bingo. Each bingo card featured icebreaker questions to facilitate conversations with neighbors. Completed bingo cards served as a raffle ticket. During the concert intermission, one lucky winner was randomly selected to receive a $10 gift card to Empower Woburn. This event was sponsored by Winchester Savings Bank (winchestersavings.com).

The next SCI 2026 Summer Concert is Friday, July 24, from 6-8pm at Library Park. Performing are The Swinging Ducks (Instagram: @theswingingducks_theband), an up-and-coming youth band from Winchester will perform a mix of jazz, oldies, pop, and more. The Social Connection Bingo prize will be a pickleball paddle and ball set. Sponsorship for this event is available.

The series concludes on August 7 with Renee and the Renegades (renee.fyi/), a band with strong ties to Woburn, bringing country rock and pop to Library Park. Attendees can expect upbeat tunes, country covers, and the opportunity to learn some line dances. This event is sponsored by Katie K. Frazier, Esq. of Touchstone Closing & Escrow.
