In commemoration of the 135th observance of the Battle of Antietam, a Civil War concert and fireworks display will be held Saturday, Sept. 13, at Municipal Stadium, representatives of the Maryland Symphony Orchestra said Monday.
Tickets already are on sale.
Winston Blenckstone, owner of the Hagerstown Suns, said he supports more non-baseball events at the stadium. MSO officials said outdoor concerts are risky because of rain. Marc Levy, MSO managing director, said ticket refunds will be available if rain prevents the concert from starting, but not if the skies open up during the event. The rest is to come from private sponsors. He said the financial institution is especially supportive of this one.
