Project Overview

We want to provide free music entertainment for our senior citizens and country western fans by having Sherwin Linton perform. Our other free musical act is geared toward the younger generation for the 2- year-olds on up! Legacy of the Loud is a rock and roll band from Minneapolis.

Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

For the Sherwin Linton band in 2023, we took attendance during his performance. We found that we had at least 40 people in attendance, during each show. There was a senior citizens free lunch served during a break in Sherwin's show and we had over 100 people in the building before his performance was finished.

For Legacy of the Loud, we will be taking attendance during the concert at different breaks to see how many attend, and then stay. For the band we used on our 2023 Legacy grant, our attendance was between 75 to 125 attendees during their performance.
