Week 5 - July 10 Concert

UPDATE:  The concert is moved to Central Auditorium tonight!  Please arrive at the regular time for sound check and leave your cases/coats in the hallway behind the stage (no other rooms available).

The Chemical City Band will perform its fifth concert of the 2024 season on July 10 at the Nicholson-Guenther Community Band Shell in Midland's Central Park, starting at 7:30 pm.

With hurricane remnants heading our way, the weather does not look promising.  A decision will be made by 4:00 pm whether to move the concert to the Central Auditorium or stay at our outdoor venue. Please check this blog or our Facebook page for last minute updates.
