Fall River Bluegrass

Fall River, Kansas Bluegrass Jam!

 

Calling all you bluegrass musicians out there.  We will be hosting the first Fall River Bluegrass Jam on Saturday, April 30th.  This gathering will take place at the old Fall River Schoolhouse beginning at 5 p.m. 

 

This is designed to be a family-friendly get together, and all are welcome to come on out and have a good time.  A meal will be provided for the musicians, and concessions will also be available for purchase by spectators.  We have the gymnasium and stage available for use, and if we get too crowded, we can always have groups outside in the schoolyard.

DIRECTIONS

Fall River is 75 miles (1 ½) hours directly east of Wichita taking highway 400.  Take county RD 33 (there is an old bait shop on the SE corner) south of 400 for ½ mile.  After crossing the bridge leading into “town,” look to the left (east); you are there!

 

Fall River is 120 miles south of Topeka.  Take highway 75 south all the way through Yates Center (for 86 miles).  Turn right at KS 39 for 15 miles.  Turn right on highway 400 going west for 7 miles, and then turn south on Co Rd 33 for ½ mile.  After crossing the bridge leading into “town,” look to the left (east); you are there!

 

Looking forward to great music, great food, and great friends!  Hope to see you there.
