"I want to invite everyone in our community to come out to this opportunity to honor our veterans and have a great time. This concert will reach across all genres of music." The band celebrates the country's love for rock, country and popular music while telling "the Air Force story by performing for military functions, community concerts, school assemblies and outdoor festivals at home and abroad, the village said in the event description. Later this month, they'll be doing that an hour and a half at the new entertainment venue, located at 1012 Station Drive. The concert will start at 6:30 p.m. and go until 8 p.m. Admission is free for all ages, and guests can bring lawn chairs, food and non-alcoholic beverages.
