After we spend time memorializing those 411 first responders, PFAM will host a street concert downtown to spend time celebrating our current first responders and those who have laid down their lives. This family-friendly event will be held downtown and will feature live music , food, drinks, and entertainment for kids. Concert featuring the Carly Pearce.
