MCPHERSON — McPherson Mayor Tom Brown announced this week that a country artist with five number one hits will be in the Light Capital for a concert next month.

"We have on July 23 at 8 p.m., Sara Evans," Brown said. "This will be held at McPherson College at the stadium. We'll have a pre-show from a local talent, which is to be announced soon."

The concert is in conjunction with McPherson’s 150th Anniversary Celebration.

"It will be free," Brown said. "We'll work out how we're going to have tickets or not have tickets to get an estimation on the crowd."

There will also be food trucks and alcohol available on the McPherson College campus between the stadium and Miller Library prior to the concert.
