WAITE PARK (WJON News) -- The second annual Celebrate Minnesota festival is this Sunday. Organizers are bringing in several Christian music singers to perform at The Ledge Amphitheater in Waite Park.

Last year it was a two-day event held at Whitney Park. Spokeswoman Dawn Zimmerman says this year they wanted to focus on the music.

We decided to focus on the one element that we knew drew the most people, which was the music.  And so, this year is all about the music, and a message of hope.
