Ted Vigil, an acclaimed tribute artist, will delight music lovers in Chester County with a spectacular John Denver Summer Tribute Concert. He will be performing Denver’s classics like “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” “Annie’s Song,” and “Rocky Mountain High” at the Unionville High School Auditorium on June 6.

The Longwood Rotary Club Foundation is the producer and organizer of the event, and the funds raised will help sustain numerous programs that benefit the local area in a variety of ways.

“This fundraising initiative began over a year ago to benefit our Kennett Square community,” said Dave Haradon, a director with the Longwood Rotary Club. “We wanted to have fun during the organizing process while also creating a fun event for all our citizens and neighbors. This fundraising initiative will benefit the Kennett Square community.”

Haradon, a longtime community supporter and a recipient of the Southern Chester County Chamber of Commerce’s Citizen of the Year award, has seen and contributed to the creation of many community initiatives through the Longwood Rotary Club. He said that the concert offers an opportunity for the community to gather in celebration and support of local causes at the same time. The combination of great music, community spirit, and charitable giving makes this event one not to be missed.

Longwood Rotary Club president TJ Zak added, “We have made a lot of progress by enriching our community with such events as this for all to enjoy together. Our area has many challenges here from people of all walks of life. We are dedicated to assuring the Kennett Square area continues to be a place where our neighbors can all work, live, play and have an enjoyable life together with family and friends.”

Attendees of Vigil’s concert can expect to hear faithful and accurate renditions of Denver’s most beloved songs, performed with the passion and precision that characterized Denver’s original performances for any years. The upcoming concert aims to honor Denver’s legacy, bringing his music to life once more for fans and newcomers alike.

This tribute concert is not just a musical event, it is a nostalgic journey through the life and work of John Denver.
