OLEAN — The city of Olean and the Olean Local Development Corp. (OLDC), in conjunction with Dr. Green Lawn and Custom Turf, will be hosting the Bradner Bash on May 30 at Bradner Stadium from 5 to 11 p.m.

Food and retail vendors will be located throughout the venue. Stadium users, including the Olean Oilers, Southern Tier Diesel, Jamestown Community College, Rally in the Valley, will be asked to participate with a booth at the event such as host a carnival booth game.
