Celebrate the Independence Day holiday with the Great Bend City Band at 8:15 pm at the Barton County Courthouse Square on July 5. The concert will feature many patriotic selections including special narratives with the city band.
Veterans of the Armed Forces will be honored. An elementary age student will have the opportunity to direct the Great Bend city band by conducting John Philip Sousa’s “The Stars And Stripes Forever”. There will be a sign-up that night prior to the concert. A name will be drawn from the entries.
Children will also march around the courthouse square with American flags.
All concerts are free and open to the public.
