For over 100 years, the Barton County Courthouse Square, portions of which are now commonly referred to as Jack Kilby Square, has been a focal point for Great Bend, a center of community events ranging from City Band concerts to Cinco de Mayo to June Jaunt. For much of that time, the venerable Clayton L. Moses Memorial Bandshell has been an integral part of those many colorful celebrations. Crowds have gathered in the plaza, filling it with sounds of conversation, laughter and music.
