The Winter Garden Rotary Club presented its annual Evening at the Pops featuring the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra on Friday, March 23, on the shores of Lake Apopka. Newton Park was filled with lawn chairs and blankets as guests relaxed on the lawn with picnic baskets and snack bags.
The orchestra played show tunes and patriotic tunes and, as always, did a shout-out to all the branches of the military as the sun slowly set over the lake.
