Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets for outdoor seating. In the event of rain, the show will be moved to the Strasburg Fire Station, 203 Franklin St., Strasburg. The concert will entail a performance from the Lampeter-Strasburg Community Band, which traditionally features a selection of patriotic songs to honor Americans who have served in the armed forces. The Lampeter-Strasburg Community Band will also play various popular tunes during the concert. The primary goal of the event is to recognize and show the community’s appreciation for its members who are currently
serving in the military or who have served in the past. The Lampeter-Strasburg Community Band will perform a song representing each branch of the United States’ military, as well as “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Every year, veterans in the audience are asked to stand when their respective branch’s song is played to be recognized for their service. “There are a lot of summer concerts in the area that tend to feature more modern music and genres like folk and rock ’n’ roll,” said Bruce Ryder, a member of the Strasburg Lions Club and Strasburg Borough’s mayor. “This is a little more traditional, and we always get a pretty good turnout of veterans who might want to hear something that’s different from many other shows.” T he Strasburg Lions C lub sponsors and organizes the annual veterans’ concert, which was created by the late Donnie Bachman. Bachman partnered with members of a local VFW The Lampeter-Strasburg Community Band will perform a blend of patriotic songs and popular music during
