We used to hear those rowing crew boats and megaphones. Not exactly a disruptive sound but surprising how far they carry. Course with no water in the river this year that has subsided.

Their oars hitting and digging into the sand bars make a distinctive sound.

and occassional festival music from Veteran's park or River West or live music at Elwood's/River's Edge..these carry well and make my neighborhood fun.

I did jump out of bed early one morning when they fired a cannon to start the R66 marathon! I probably should have been up early to run the marathon anyway.  :D
