STEVENS POINT – Many gathered at Pfiffner Pioneer Park this Labor Day Weekend to hear the effervescent tones of jazz move throughout the downtown and waterfront area at the Riverfront Jazz Festival.

Entertainment featured a mixture of local and award-winning jazz, merging local talent with internationally renowned acts like Brian Lynch.
