Free Concert
Saturday, Aug. 3, 3 p.m., Mill Villages Park, South Grafton. Featuring three Grafton musicians: Bob Jordan, Rob Ledoux and Joe Kuras, all Grafton High graduates, in a celebration of Grafton-bred talent. All three musicians spend a lot of time entertaining at nursing homes, assisted living and senior centers. All ages are welcome, and seniors are especially welcome. Organizers hope that any alum of Grafton High, especially those of the classes of 1967, 1972 and 1979, will be able to reconnect with old classmates and acquaintances while enjoying the diverse offerings of the three musicians.
The concert is made possible, in part, through the support of the Grafton Cultural Council with funds administered by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
