Residents of Athens or Sayre, Pennsylvania as well as residents of Waverly New York may be looking for fun local activities which are free. There communities offer free entertainment consisting of local music talent.

One of my all time favorite things to do is to listen to live music. I am lucky to live in a valley of small towns which offer free concerts during the summer. Read on and I'll share when and where these concerts are, come out and support local talent.

These free concerts range from rock, pop, country and polka music. All of these events are sponsored by the communities in which they are held. If you are on the border of New York and Pennsylvania
