Special Events
Red Clay Ministries will be holding a Silent Auction in the R.F. Strickland Building. We have moved some of our booth locations around this year so be sure to get one of our flyers to make sure you don’t miss your favorite vendors. The children’s activities, including the precious ponies, will be located near the city playground.
The entire Jubilee family is saddened by the loss of our longtime friend and engineer, Perry “The Train Man” Wilson. While we can never replace him, we will have a trackless train at the Jubilee.
Closing
COVID kept the Concord Jubilee from happening last year, but its long awaited return is exciting for both residents of the county and those who will be visiting from other counties.
Parking will be in the field near the intersection of Hwy 18 and Roberts Quarters Rd as well as the large field on Harris Street at McClendon.
Come out and see us, y’all!
