Marty Stuart has a day, gets a road marker

Philadelphia loves Marty Stuart - so much so that he has his own day, July 9th.

This year Marty will be at the Marty Stuart Day celebration for a full day of activities which will include a museum exhibit and road marker dedication.  He'll also perform at the Choctaw Indian Fair.

Marty's wife, Connie Smith, will also be on hand and will perform at the Choctaw Indian Fair as well.

The road marker will designate Marty Stuart Drive off Mississippi 19 north near land Stuart owns. The museum exhibit will feature items that Marty owned including things from his childhood in Philadelphia.

If you'd like to attend, all events are open to the public. Marty will be at the dedication at 10 a.m. and will be at the Philadelphia-Neshoba County Historical Museum at noon. He'll then perform that evening at the fair at 8:30 p.m.
