Today's July 4th Concert will be inside if necessary.
We are still hoping to be outside on the north lawn this evening. The weather prediction indicates 0% chance of rain starting at 6pm, but 60% before that. We will be doing our best to keep the concert outside, but may end up inside because of ground conditions. Hope for the best.
