Front Row Sports Bar and Grill, Ocoee business; SFH, a merchandise and apparel line that donates 50% of its proceeds back to the community; and Mark Houghton, local country cover artist, will host a Veterans Day Parking Lot Party Saturday, Nov. 11.

The event will take place from 1 to 9:30 p.m. at Front Row, 146 N. Clarke Road, Ocoee.

The festivities will include raffles, games, beer tubes and vendors, as well as live music from four bands.

In addition to Houghton, Out of the Blue, Muddy Puddle and Jutt Huffman will perform.
