I am the site naturalist at Gene Stratton-Porter State Historic Site in Rome City. I am in the process of planning our annual Chautauqua Days festival Saturday August 18^th & Sunday August 19^th from Noon to 4pm both days. We are looking for musicians willing to come to the site and play for our visitors. We have had the Fike Brothers out here in the past but due to budget restraints this year, we are unable to use them. Any musician or group who wants to come out and play is more than welcome to. There is no cost to them to participate and they can bring out any product they might have to sell. I picked up a flyer for the bluegrass festivals in Kendallville and found this email on the bottom of it. If you could share this information with the rest of the association that would be extremely helpful. Thank you in advance for your help.

Bluegrass Jam held at Knox Community Center

By: ted

Published: October 17th, 2011

Country music fans, especially of the Bluegrass persuasion, turned out Friday night for Mayor Rick Chamber’s Bluegrass Jam at the Knox Community Center.

Mayor Chambers said the event gives musicians, and fans alike a chance to get out and enjoy their music of choice.

“We had a great turnout as usual,” said Mayor Rick Chambers. “We had about 270 people here. We had donations for the Food Pantry and my pickup truck is full of food. We probably have 700 or 800 pounds of food. It’s a really great turnout. We hold these events about twice a year and we’d like to do more, but the Community Center is usually rented out, so we do one in early spring and late fall.”

Over $300.00 was collected as well.
