| Description: |
Chatham's
first bandstand, built in the early 30's, was across from the
Epicure, where there is now a town parking lot. The present
bandstand was built in the early 50's. It was named after conductor
Whit Tileston, on his 80th birthday.
Every Friday during the summer, free concerts are given from
8:00 p.m. until 9:30 p.m., and seasonal attendance is in the
thousands.
Children love the bandstand whether it's in use or not, and
more than a few grown-ups—brides and grooms included—have
pleasant memories associated with the quaint little structure.
