The Regatta Shoreline Amphitheater was christened Saturday for the Aber Day Reunion Concert as part of Summerfest on Flathead Lake.

Located at the Polson Fairgrounds, the Mission Mountain Wood Band, Sam Riddle & His Band, and Andrea Harsell & Luna Roja performed on the newly built stage.

Proceeds benefitted the Anderson Broadcasting Charitable Foundation, Inc.

Organizers could not immediately confirm how much money was raised or how many people attended the concert, but they did say that attendance was higher than expected.

Vintage cars and new hotrods lined Main Street for the car show Saturday morning while artists took over the Sandpiper Art Show on the front lawn of the Lake County Courthouse.

The next event at the amphitheater is this weekend’s Flathead Lake Blues Festival, starting Friday through Saturday.
