On Saturday, July 29th, Valley Cares’ Board of Directors will host their annual benefit concert on the Townshend Common. This year the concert will feature lively local favorites: Tuesday Night Town Hall Boys, Turkey Buzzards, Brassa, and The Merry Pranksters.

The bands will perform 4-7pm. This is a family-friendly event that will be fun for all ages. Concert admission is free, but donations are appreciated. Popcorn and baked goods and other food will be for sale on site. If it rains, the concert will be held in the Townshend Town Hall.

This is the third summer Valley Cares has hosted a public concert on Townshend Common. As last year, proceeds from the concert will go toward the improvement of accessible outdoor opportunities at West River Valley Senior Housing. Donations from last year's concert went toward resurfacing the walking paths and purchasing 6 new benches. This year, Valley Cares hopes to obtain distance markers and signage for an outdoor exercise circuit.
