Therefore, we're moving the concert indoors to the DLR/ MMHS gymnasium, located at 105 W, Brayton Rd., 2 blocks south of the Campus. Concessions will be served from 6 on, concert starts at 7 pm. It sounds like Mike's Famous Lemonade and Ewe and Me Acres produce stand will be joining us as well. Bleacher seating will be available at the school. You may also bring lawn/camp chairs, but please be aware that we will be sitting on a gym floor, so please bring a blanket or large towel to put under your chairs to minimize any damage to the floor.
