Lead vocalists and guitarists Gary Santarella and Roger Kimball have entertained audiences for over forty years and play mainstream music classics of James Taylor, Simon and Garfunkel, Crosby Stills and Nash, and more.

The singing of the National Anthem will be performed by Salem High School’s a cappella group Witch Pitch? followed by a two-hour ‘POPS’ concert by the Hillyer Festival Orchestra, a forty-piece ensemble featuring vocal soloist Jacyn Tremblay with a special intermission show featuring the Salem Collins Middle School Chorus.
