Wednesday, September 11, 2013 — Issue 220

HALIFAX — The Snake Mountain Bluegrass Band is trekking down from Addison County to perform at the Halifax Community Hall, 20 Brook Rd. in West Halifax Village.

Three young women from Addison County - the talented Connor Sisters - join the band for a special performance delivering gospel-style and country/bluegrass classics.
