Larry Chesky and his family were neighbors of ours when I was a young girl in Holyoke. I remember going over their house and playing with one of his daughters, Laura. So many happy memories of listening to his music and other polka bands in the Holyoke area. Still want to jump up and polka when I hear his music!
From the Mountain Park Memories video, perhaps? You can watch online for free. But I know I've seen a black and white still of him walking down the midway. It was possibly from Ducharme's Mt. Park picture book, which I've conveniently misplaced. I'm kind of a Mt. Park nerd, if there such a thing, haha.
I think I have a video actually of Larry walking down the midway at Mountain Park! It's very brief however as it was from a PBS documentary. I'll have to look for it.
I think you're probably right, although I can't say for sure. I'm doing some research on Mt. Park and I am having a heck of a time finding a pic or vid of Chesky at Mt. Park, even though he was a "fixture" there for so long. I KNOW I've seen a pic of him walking down the midway with his accordion but I can't find it, grr.

Matthew McGovern he’s actually my grandfather, if you’ve still got it, mind posting it!? Thank you
I'm willing to bet that a lot of this footage is from Mountain Park in Holyoke, MA. Back in the day....not exactly sure though.
Mitch Biskup was seated in the audience, too.

We can recognize Estelle and her sister, but we do not know where this event was held? You should always put a place and a date, if you know it.
