Despite our best efforts, we couldn’t convince Mother Nature to lower the temperature for tomorrow’s Concert on the Square. After discussions with The Blooze Brothers and in the best interest of all attending, we’ve made the difficult decision to reschedule tomorrow’s performance to next Tuesday, September 3rd due to the high temperatures forecasted for tomorrow. Our donation drive will also be moved to next week. Thank you for your understanding and we hope to see you on September 3rd!
