Five new Jamboree records for 2024, three attendance and two donation buckets, and we're only half way through the season. Thanks so much to all who help make it happen!

Unfortunately, weather forecast for late afternoon and early evening calls for near certainty of stormy skies. 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. Thank you!
