That's a new event for us at our wonderful Entertainment Committee, just put together this last month and it's already receiving a lot of popularity. Yeah, interest there so and can they
still register for that? They can, yes, And how they get a hold of these yep, same way through our Facebook page Barsville SunFest and we'll see that message come through. And we're just asking if you're a singer songwriter eighteen years or older. I just want to put that out there. I know we've had some people ask us about it, but we're keeping it to eighteen years of older just for liability reasons, you know, if that makes
sense. If you're like eight or nine and you're running around up there in cables and yeah, things things could happen. It's not that I don't trust. I trust a lot of people, but you know, it's just for our end. We just wanted to keep things on the same side. You know, if that makes sense, What does this do? You don't want
that? Yeah, Dotty woodchair will go up straight. One thing too, for those who've never been out to some of these concerts at night, it's it's b y LC, so it's bring your own lawnchair, right, lawnchair. Yes, and we do have some bleachers, but you need to bring that out. It's so neat to see how many people will come out and just bring the lawn chair. And it's just it's best outdoor picnic and all
year. Yeah. Yeah, nice call there, we needed that. And then Saturday evening you know you'll be there at three thirty with the Suns, Yeah, with your friends Joseph god and Brian Pennington. Yeah. And then Terry Milton, Terry Melton and let it ride at five with the Sheriffs, So behave. Yeah, I will behave. I think we all will. We don't, yes, uh. And then at six thirty local favorite Anjeanette Webster and her band Evolutionia. Yes. I just talked to Anginette over the
weekend and she's really excited to be back. She should be open for last year. All the rain and she got all the sun. It was good. And then and then at eight o'clock, the classic rock cover band Infinity closes us out from Tulsa. Like I said, you know, if you're a fan of R. E u. S. B. Wagon, Journey, Boston Sticks, that era, they'll they'll cover it all for you. Okay, we got glow Fast coming up too. Yes, that said that.
Any fun, Yes, we do blow Fest sponsored this year by Blue Peet right, and that's gonna take place during our Saturday evening time frame at about dusk, so about eight o'clock ish. I would say, up there at the top of the hill by the mess the center pole. Just super fun mess. It's just a fun mess. Don't wear anything you're gonna miss. Remember the themeous never grow uh, never grow up. I like,
you know something, Trey, You're you're you're a little bit younger. But the ladies where we heard guk giggling every time they say never grow up, because all of a sudden they turn like like they're nine or ten again and they just start giggling. You know. The whole committees like that. Oh that's what I've heard. That's what I've heard. We'll go ahead through a
good group of people. Yeah, got it, it really is. And remember we're all volunteers and so we're just doing this because we love our community. This is our third year be together. This is hard to believe. And every year we increase and we grow and we add and we just were like cheese and the age well speaking that we got a ton of food vendors this year, don't we? We do? And but I just want to make sure to remember what I said about the glow fest. Wear a white
T shirt, yeah, because you know that would help. Yeah, it'll be fun, really cool. It's fun. It's definitely a come get dirty. It wouldn't be a picnic if you didn't. Yeah. So we have nineteen foods in this nineteen amazing. I think it's maybe one or two more than what we had last year. Maybe. Well it's something new this year is we have a food vendor down in the marketplace. Yeah, we kind
of spread them out a little bit more. That's good. That way you don't have to you know, run a half acre to get back over the bridge. Right. I've had very many people. I've had many people ask me around the community, will the Indian Talkless be back? And that answer is yes, they are coming back. Is that the big tent right by the main stage, Yes, in the pavilion Life, Thank you get a place to eat and you get a free concert while doing so, and dinner
in the show. Yeah, it's dinner in the show. That's been a state that's been there as long as I can never remember. I don't even know what they first started out there, but I've been going to this thing for about twenty years or more and it's always been there. Of course, DJ Southern Snow another local favorite on the snow cones. And we'll have some cocorn vendors out there and lemonade, Yeah, lemonade, and think who is it okay women, yep, yeah, she's the one that actually be down
in the marketplace. So it'll be nice for actually the vendors, so they can get some food while they're working. So good. Keep that blood sugar, ye yeah, nothing like that on a good hot day. No, I'll take that. And then Dipping Dots is back. They're another favorite. I try to get that whenever I can. You know, sometimes in the middle of the afternoon, just go over there and say, hey, can I get like a chocolate ice cream? And it's Dipping Dots. It's the
ice cream of the future. It has been since the forties, but this is gonna be great. And remember it's all cavalie neutral, because once you do some walking around the park, you burned it all off to worry about shopping some music. You know this, This is why why should you grow up? If you've got sunfast in your backyard. It's right here. Guy's gonna be living up to your theme. Oh yeah, don't forget movie night. We got got hook and what's the other one? And return? Yeah,
it kind of fits to never grow up. Yeah, and thank you Truity Credit Union for sponsoring both of those movies for it.
