Over the past 21 years, Music in the Meadow has raised more than $130,000 in support of Susan G. Komen’s mission

to “save lives by meeting the most critical needs in our communities and investing in breakthrough research to prevent and cure breast cancer.” Every dollar raised at the event is donated to Susan G. Komen’s Fight Against Breast Cancer.

Bring a blanket or lawn chair, or relax under the tents in the meadow, and enjoy an afternoon of great music, family fun, and community spirit—all while supporting an important cause. We look forward to seeing you there!
