Party in the Park....
Party in the Park combines two of our most popular events: Fun Fair and Fireworks with the Rock the Lot Block Party. All your favorite activities will be in one place at one time. Event benefits Project Change (a youth-driven, non-profit organization empowering middle and high school students to be agents for positive change within their communities), the Sandy Spring Volunteer Fire Department (SSVFD), and the Olney Civic Fund. Martins Sedan and Limousine Service will be providing FREE shuttle service from the ICC Park and Ride on Georgia Ave and the Park & Ride lot at the corner of Norbeck and Georgia Ave (entrance from Norbeck).

Party in the Park will have live music thanks to the generosity of Medstar Montgomery Medical Center. Bands starting at the top of the hour, every hour until the Olney Big Band starts about 7:00 pm and plays until the fireworks start at dark (~8:30 pm). On a smaller side stage will be smaller acts which will play while the stage turns over for the next band. Line up coming soon.
The Beer & Wine Garden will be there too. Must be age 21 and over - bring ID. Enjoy selections from local breweries. No alcohol can leave the event area. Please drink responsibly. You will find a giant Jenga game and Mashball provided by Olney Civic Fund - free to play.
Our many generous sponsors make this event possible. Be sure to stop by those exhibiting and thank them for their support. At the Headquarters tent there is a raffle for gift cards donated by local businesses. Please help support Olney Days with a purchase - just $5 a ticket or $20 for 5 tickets. Drawing will be done before the fireworks and winners will be called or texted.
The Sandy Spring Volunteer Fire Department's Auxillary will be running carnival games: Duck Pond, Ring Toss, Target Shoot, Softball Bowl, Ring the Clown, Putt Putt, Lollipop Tree, Tattoos, Coin Toss, and Lawn Darts.
