Linda W. Silfee, Program Coordinator says:

We have a great series line-up of musical entertainment (5 bands listed on the flyer) for this July's concert series...also adding a nice community touch of having someone local (or from our surrounding area) be in the spotlight and sing our "National Anthem" at each summer concert opening!

For 3 of our weeks, we're also showcasing cars for display from 2 clubs...Street Cars of Desire and Classic Corvette Club of Maryland...plus touring motorcycles from the Gold Wing Road Riders Association (GWRRA).

This is quality entertainment that's free for the public...and a chance to make donations of personal care items to the Human Services Programs of Carroll County, Inc. to help the homeless and low-income families served by their agency.

Bring your lawn chairs or your blankets, and a picnic lunch, if you'd like. Come out to join us for an evening of entertainment! We also have a couple of vendors on hand for the purchasing of food, beverage, or delicious snowballs!

We cordially invite you to join us at the Westminster City Park each Sunday in July at 6:45 pm for a variety of great music. Join us in celebrating our 13th summer of bringing great entertainment to the public. Concerts are Free and Open to the Public.

Food and beverages will be sold. Donations of personal care items for all ages, baby food, diapers, formula, paper goods or cleaning supplies will be collected to help the homeless & low-income individuals served by the Human Services Programs, Inc. of Carroll County.

Yesterday’s News is a 4-piece rock & roll band dedicated to musical greatness. Each member was born shortly after the death of John Lennon. Yesterday’s News gives the 21st century a band that is a tribute and throwback to the roots of rock and roll, but challenges those who would ignore those roots. The band takes elements from their idols, while playing for respect, and adds adrenaline to keep up with our fast-paced world. The band also performs some of its original works. Their recently released CD features great melodies and vocals, solid rhythm, and terrific musicianship. Come along for a “memory ride” and enjoy listening to some of your favorite cover tunes of yesterday with a 2007 added flavor…hence-forth their band name, Yesterday’s News … “Lovely Rita”, “Up on Cripple Creek”, “Listen to Her Heart”, “Day Tripper”, “Got to Get You Into My Life”, “Ballroom Blitz”! www.yesterdaysnewsmusic.com
