Welcome to the 4th season of the

St. Henry Summer Concert Series in the Park

The St. Henry Freedom Amphitheater is located at 661 Beckman Ave. in St. Henry’s beautiful South Park. The amphitheater was built to be able to create an entertaining meeting place for people to gather and enjoy. The amphitheater has restrooms and a concession area. The land facing the amphitheater is contoured to accommodate lawn chairs, and the walkways are handicap accessible. The concerts held on Friday nights during the summers are FREE and open to the public. Concessions will be available.

As we enter our fourth season, we wish to thank the businesses, organizations, and individuals who have donated the money, manpower, and equipment necessary to support these concerts. It has been arranged to have individual or business donations to the amphitheater go through the Mercer County Civic Foundation to make it a tax deductible donation. We encourage you to invite friends, family, and neighbors to join us Friday nights this summer in South Park and enjoy some delightful entertainment.

August 21 Mama’s WranglersSince 2001 The Jackson Family Band & Cloggers (formerly known as the Kid Fiddlers) have been amazing audiences around the world! Mama’s Wranglers began performing together over 12 years ago when all the children were very young and only knew how to play the fiddle. Over the

years, the children learned to play many different instruments. They began singing in amazing 4-part harmony blends, and clogging was added to the show, which brought the energy level OVER THE TOP!! And finally, Miss Skyler, at the tender age of 6, added a new dimension—yodeling—and became one of America’s favorite yodelers. Check them out at www.mamaswranglers.com.
