Fans of the musical group Big Time Rush will help Peru get a new swimming pool. The musical act will headline one of two Concerts for A Cause this summer. The cause for that concert will be the Peru swimming pool fund.
The concert series is organized by Merry Noonan of Lou’s LaGrotto and sponsored by La Salle County Broadcasting which includes AM 1220 WLPO, 99.3 WAJK and 96.5 the Wolf.
Peru Alderman Tony Ferrari says he received a call from Noonan saying the concert will be a kids’ concert with proceeds benefiting the pool fund. The show is scheduled for August 13 at the Illinois Valley Regional Airport.
Another concert scheduled for June 25 features county musicians Trace Adkins and Eric Church.
