FREEDOM FEST CONCERT & MOTORCYCLE RIDE

On July 31 at the Shaboo Stage in Willimantic, the Chamber of Commerce will be hosting a concert featuring the Whiskey Treaty Roadshow, an Americana, Rock and Folk band that has opened for James Taylor.  The concert is a fundraiser for the new Eastern CT Veterans Community Center located at 1320 Main St, Suite 27, Willimantic.  The Community Center is a safe and happy space for veterans, active military and their families where they can meet, learn and grow.  We host many events there, have a weekly Veterans Coffee House and provide access to a variety of veterans services and information ranging from starting your own business to VA benefits assistance.  The Community Center opened on June 10, 2021 and since then we have had hundreds of veterans of all ages visit and take advantage of our programs.  Please help us continue these amazing opportunities for those who have GIVEN ALL in the service of our country and in the name of freedom.  Even if you cannot attend the event you can become a sponsor or make a donation.

The concert will be at the Shaboo Stage, Main St, Willimantic
