Good morning Burlington,Saturday (June 11) saw the official return of the annual Sound of Music Festival (in its 43rd year) to an in-person event with its 'Live at the Lake'!

The free portion of the Sound of Music Festival runs this week (June 16-19) with Opening Ceremonies on Thursday (June 16) and the parade on Saturday (June 18).
