WHAT’S HAPPENING It’s time for Willamalane’s biggest party, the Springfi eld SummerFair at Island Park. Satin Love Orchestra dazzles Friday night with its 11-piece band and ’70s-tinged funk, paired with a beer garden and food booths. Family-orient- ed activities start on Saturday, when Island Park overfl ows with pony rides, clowns, face painters, radio-controlled boats and hands-on activities. Later that night, jam to ’80s hits with tribute band The Koz and headliner Starship. Music, beer and games — what more could you ask for in a summer festival? The Springfi eld SummerFair is 7-10pm Friday, July 11 & 10am-9:30pm Sat- urday, July 12, at Island Park in Springfi eld. Concerts: $8, $25/family of four.
