live music with Country Joe Liptock

Rock to the music of country Joe Liptock and FastForward. Country Joe has been a Nashville recording artist since 1991 and has been on televesion and radio stations across the Eastern United States.

The band will be featuring some classic country songs and classic rock hits like “Beat me Daddy Eight to the Bar”. Also, performing a patriotic tribute to 9/11. See Country Joe at the Wilderness Lodge form 4:30 to 6:00 on Saturday!

Last year in our first competition we attracted 55 competitors and more than 600 spectators!

We hope to grow this into an Annual Event, continuing to donate a portion of the proceeds to the “Wounded Warrior Project”!
