The picnic will begin with a cookout at 5 p.m., followed by a concert at 7 p.m..
All past and present service members will receive a complimentary meal and there will be a free-will donation accepted for non-military members.
Beyond the Yellow Ribbon is united to bring Service members ALL THE WAY HOME.

Holy Cross Lutheran Church has its annual music festival coming up the last Sunday in July, the 30th. This year’s program has a new wrinkle from the local talent of past years. The musical program this year will feature the Kingery family group in concert at 7 p.m. preceded by a pulled-pork sandwich meal beginning at 5 p.m. There will also be a bake sale and all of the remaining quilts the Holy Cross ladies have made will be sold. After looking at the Kingery group on the internet, it appears they come fortified with guitars, banjos, fiddles and other musical instruments that will keep your toes a tapping.
