Free outdoor concert with 9 local bands and the 43rd Army Band. A mechanism to reach out to veterans and the community in order to share some good music, fellowship and an opportunity to thank our veterans of all generations. Multiple vendors from within the VA and the local community will come share information with our veterans and their families, so they will know what kinds of benefits and services they could expect from the VA and the community.
