If You Weren’t Here You Missed It!

If you weren’t here for the Infamous Stringdusters concert, I have two questions – why not and where were you?

This was an amazing concert in a place with unmatched views and ambiance. The Lakeside Lawn provided incredible “ampitheater like” acoustics; the weather was perfect and the audience was delightful. It took many volunteers to pull it off, but in the end it was masterfully put together and everyone had a great time.

I cant’ wait for the next concert in the
“Live at the Ranch” series. I’ll keep you all posted when we come up with the next one.

Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that even little Mary Elizabeth made an appearance. She’s a cutie!

I also had my trusty sidekick – Ms. Emma Huntsman up on stage with me to thank everyone for coming and making our inaugural concert a booming success.

The Americana Kids received $3000 in donations from the concert-goers which made all the effort worth it. They are very appreciative of everyone’s generosity.

See ya around the Ranch!

Check out their music at http://thestringdusters.com/. The Ranch is providing a beautiful “venue with a view” where concert goers will be treated to outstanding bluegrass music as well as a view of Phalarope Lake and the Three Sisters as the sun sets. Be sure to bring your sand chairs and a blanket and enjoy the ranch style barbeque food available for purchase. We will also have a special area for wheelchair seating. Please note: no outside alcoholic beverages allowed (there is a Beer Garden on site). come early to get a good spot and enjoy the relaxed ambiance of the Ranch.

Cheers!
