USMC BAND IN CONCERT IN CARROLLTON - FREE TICKETS

Hey

The great NEW Center for the Performing Arts on Old Newnan Road called me and asked if I could help distribute FREE Tickets to this great opportunity to (1) See the new facility and (2) experience this first class Marine Band.

CCVMP Association members can call Don Levans 678-246-8336 and arrange to pick up the tickets --- The only cost is that you make absolutely sure that the tickets are used because the chair will be empty if YOU don't show.
