Viewfinder: Community Band Performs Patriotic Concert to Kick Off Holiday Weekend

The Plymouth Community Band performs free concerts at Kellogg Park on Thursdays. This week's performance celebrated America and its veterans.

This patriotic concert happens every year, and it brings a larger crowd than usual for the Thursday concerts.

The end of the show featured veterans holding flags in front of the stage, prompting the audience to stand in reverence. 

"This is really one of our popular events," said Carl Battishill, Plymouth Commuinity Band director. "Memorial Day is always paying tribute to those who have died in service, and this is a chance for us to pay tribute  to the guys who are still here and present… We consider it a great honor."
