At Harris Insurance Group, we try to give back to the community. Building relationships with our local community is very important to us.
One of our biggest involvement is sponsoring Merchants Park/ Harris Insurance Pavilion. We have made our third $4000 donation this year, and we have also paid for landscaping the pavilion, stage lighting for the pavilion as well as donations toward the concerts we have had since the end of 2020.
Last year, 2022, we paid out of pocket to cover the cost of the bands that performed here. We had a total of 10 concerts this year. During the year 2022, we not only paid the third of our annual installments for the pavilion but also paid approx. $15000 out of pocket for the concerts between both offices.
This year, 2023, all three concerts Will be Tribute Bands. We will be having a Fleetwood Mac Tribute Band, an 80’s Tribute Band, and an Eagles Tribute Band. We are talking to a Beatles tribute Band about performing in 2024, hopefully.
In 2021, we paid out over $20,000 to help cover the cost of concerts.
Concerts haven’t always drawn huge crowds, but the community seems to like the concerts. We have three concerts scheduled for next year. These concerts also give our local food vendors the opportunity to market themselves.
