Annual community concert by the Owensboro Symphony Orchestra on the front lawn of Kentucky

Wesleyan College.

We will invite community to bring their pocket change (quarters) and set it down
on a one-mile track. 1 mile of quarters would make Habitat $6,000-$7,000. The
hope is to close a portion of Veterans Blvd and make a winding track for the
community to fill up with quarters. 100% of proceeds go directly towards building
materials for a Habitat house.
