Labor Day Weekend: Get Groovy with the Aquanuts, Mellow with the Walnut Creek Concert Band and romantic with Center Rep

Aquanuts: For their annual synchronized swim extravaganza, starting tonight, Walnut Creek's internationally renowned synchronized swim team, the Aquanuts will glide through the 1970s. 

The Aquanuts, 12-time national champions and winners of more than 200 national and world titles--including some Olympic gold medals--will continue their '70s themed show throughout the Labor Day weekend.  

The swim show takes place through Sunday night at the Clarke Memorial Swim Center, Heather Farm Park, Walnut Creek.  Thursday's night's show is the preview and begins at 7:30 p.m. The shows Friday, Saturday and Sunday night begin at 8 p.m.

The Walnut Creek Concert Band: The official band of the city of Walnut Creek, whose repertoire spans from Gershwin and Copland to Sinatra and Sousa, will present its Labor Day concert 6 p.m. at Civic Park. Stop by with a blanket or picnic. The concert is free.

And, a beautiful romance, courtesy of Center Repertory Company: Center Rep presents the original 1930s musical on which several films, including the 1998 Tom Hanks-Meg Ryan romantic comedy You've Got Mail, were based. All versions depict two professional colleagues who initially clash in person before discovering that they are soul mates through an anonymous pen pal relationship. She Loves Me is from the same team that created Fiddler on the Roof, and it started out as Parfumerie, set in Budapest by Hungarian playwright Miklos Laszlo. You can see the show tonight and Saturday night at 8 p.m. and for a Sunday matinee at 2:30 pm. The show continues through October 10. Lesher Center for the Arts, www.lesherartscenter.org
