Milsap’s upcoming concert at The Sharon to benefit local food pantry

The Lake Cares Food Pantry has served more than 17,000 hungry people this year, and Ronnie Milsap’s concert on Saturday will help them fight hunger.

Ronnie Milsap, shown performing in The Villages during his ‘Farewell Tour’ in April 2015, will put on a show at The Sharon on Saturday at 7 p.m.

Milsap, a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, plays Saturday at 7 p.m. in the Sharon L. Morse Performing Arts Center.

Milsap’s hits include: “Smokey Mountain Rain,” “Lost In the Fifties Tonight,” “No Getting’ Over Me,” “Any Day Now” and “What A Difference You Made In My Life.”

Part of the proceeds from Ronnie Milsap’s concert at The Sharon on Saturday night will benefit the Lake Cares Food Pantry.

Part of the concert proceeds will benefit the Lake Cares Food Pantry, which has served 17,251 meals to nearly 5,000 families in Lake County this year alone.

One of Milsap’s autographed guitars will be raffled off at the concert to benefit the food pantry. For more information, contact Lake Cares at 352-383-0100.
