MT. MORRIS — The Mt. Morris Jamboree opens its 13th season on June 13 with a free concert by Rick Lindy and the Wild Ones presenting their Roy Orbison Tribute Show starting at 7 p.m. Rick and his band thrilled audiences here last year with their powerful performance of high energy rock and roll from the 50s and 60s, and this year they'll open our season with a tribute to the iconic legend, Roy Orbison. You'll hear all of Roy's greatest hits presented with passionate authenticity by this exciting band.
Concessions for the evening will be provided by the Evangelical Free Church of Mt. Morris who will be serving pulled pork BBQ sandwiches, cole slaw, chips, water, and baked goods. Hector's will be serving tacos, burritos, nachos, drinks, and more, all starting at 6 p.m. The Senior. and Community Center Popcorn Girls, Emmie and Lily, will likely have fresh popcorn, too. Ewe and Me Acres will host a Farmer's Market with fresh produce, baked goods, crafts and more every Friday from 4-8 p.m. on the campus as well. The Encore Art Gallery and the Historical museum will be open on the campus during concerts, also.
Please bring a blanket or chair, or enjoy the new benches and join the fun on our beautiful, historic campus in the center of Mt. Morris, two blocks south of Illinois Route 64 on Wesley Avenue and enjoy the free rock and roll concert.
