Fans of classic country music, this is your night! Be sure to attend Lock 3 Park Saturday July 14th at 9 p.m. as WQMX presents "This is My Country with Collin Raye."

The man with the most muscular tenor in country music still puts on shows that are electrifying in their intensity. Best known for hits like "One Girl," "That Was a River," "What the Heart Wants," and the NASCAR anthem "The Wall," Colin Raye will excite the Lock 3 Park audience with good old fashioned country music mixed with heartfelt, thought provoking lyrics.

Opening for Collin Raye will be the lightning fast fiddle-work and Irish dance footwork of the Hunt Family Fiddlers at 7. Admission for this great evening of country music will be $5. Gates open at 6:30 PM.
