Thomas is a pop singer best known for his 1960s hits “Hooked on a Feeling” and “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on My Head.” “Raindrops,” featured in the 1969 film “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 music chart that same year. The song also won an Academy Award for Best Original Song. More than a decade later, Thomas scored another hit, “As Long As We Got Each Other,” the theme song for the popular 1980s sitcom “Growing Pains.”

Singer-songwriter Thom Bresh will open for Thomas.

The concert is a fundraiser for Five Valleys Crimestoppers, which operates year-round, toll-free phone lines for citizens to anonymously report tips on criminal activity. Money raised through the concert will fund rewards for tips used to solve crimes.
