PALM DESERT, Calif. (KESQ) — For the first time, the McCallum Theatre, in partnership with the City of Palm Desert, hosted the Stars Stripes & Songs — a celebration of Veterans.
A patriotic pre-show celebration started at 5:30 p.m. with a USO-style performance at 7 p.m.
Organizers said the night is dedicated to honoring all who have served, along with their families whose love and sacrifices strengthen our nation.
“This evening is about more than music – it’s about community,” said Yvonne Bell, CEO of the McCallum Theatre. “We are coming together to say thank you to the men and women who have served and to their families, who serve right alongside them.”
