Freedom Park 2017 concert series lineup
Sawyer Fredericks opens the season June 21.
The schedule for this summer's series of free concerts at Freedom Park in Scotia is out.
As usual, it's a big lineup with multiple concerts each week from late June through late August. And the lineup includes a bunch of different genres.
Freedom Park is on the Mohawk River, just over the Western Gateway Bridge from Schenectady, next to Jumpin' Jack's.
