The Toledo Concert band has performed the Independence Day Concert at the Hayes Presidential Library & Museums since 1997. This year’s concert begins at 2 p.m. on Sunday, July 4, at Spiegel Grove in Fremont with a patriotic concert on the verandah of President Rutherford and First Lady Lucy Hayes’ historic home.

The annual concert features the Toledo Concert Band, which will play a variety of music, and Civil War re-enactors will fire cannons in sync with Tchaikovsky’s “1812 Overture.” Admission is free. Bring a chair or blanket for seating on the Hayes Home lawn.
