Young Harris College hosts annual Pops on the Patio

by Steve Esser

Young Harris, GA (09/11/2025) — If you are in the mood for some good music in September then plan to swing by Young Harris College Saturday, Sept. 20, for the annual Pops on the Patio concert. The event is free and open to the public.

The Young Harris College Concert Band will be performing, with the concert beginning at 5:30 p.m. The band will perform a wide range of music centered around pop culture personalities and characters.

The playlist includes everything from Looney Tunes to the Barber of Seville. Concert goers will enjoy the "sweet" sounds of Sweet Georgia Brown and Sweet Child O' Mine, not to mention the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin.

There will be plenty of activity this weekend as it's also YHC's annual Family Weekend, which brings the students' families to campus for an entire weekend. Everything from an outdoor climbing tower, family photos, Young Harris Athletics' events, and even Porchfest, Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m., will be on tap. Bring your lawn chairs, a picnic meal, or whatever you need to enjoy some good music, and we'll see you there. If the weather does not cooperate, the location will be the Suber Banquet Hall in the Rollins Campus Center.
