The Upper Alton Association is deeply saddened by having to cancel this fun, exciting event series for the first time in 10 years.

As for the Bud Summers Tribute Concert that was scheduled for June 2020 that will still happen at a later date. The Upper Alton Association still wants to show its support of Bud Summers and all the contributions he made to the Alton Area. The tribute concert will either be planned for later this year or will be a part of the 2021 concert series.

The mission of the Upper Alton Association is to support future improvements to the Upper Alton area for residents and businesses. The organization sponsors the installation of U.S. flags on light poles for all federal holidays, maintenance of the hanging flower baskets during the summer months (this will still happen for 2020), coordination of the “Souper Saturday” dining event, installation of holiday decorations during the winter, supports the City-Wide Litter Clean-Up.

These free community events would not be possible without the support of our generous sponsors: Scott Credit Union, Alton Physical Therapy, Pennzoil Quick Stop, State Farm – Scott Neudecker, 1st MidAmerica, Advantage News, and WBGZ 107.1.
