It is kind of sad. ย People are just getting into the swing of summer. ย Everyone is feeling on top of their summer activities, the snow is off all the bike trails, and the BBQ techniques are really honed in. ย Unfortunately, it is looking like summer is starting to taper off. ย The main sign this week, is the end of the summer music. ย Music on Main, Concert on the Commons and the Targhee festivals are all coming to an end this week. ย So if you have been wanting to partake in any of these, this weekend is your last chance. ย Here are some of the events this weekend.
Music on Main City Park, Victor Thursday 6pm
The final Music on Main will not be a disappointment. ย Keeping up with the community feel and good music, this will be a sweet way to spend your Thursday night. ย Kristy Kruger and friends will be opening for Paul Thorne. ย It may be a good week to head over early. ย The opening show could be a quality one. ย If you want to let loose on the last event and frequent the beer tent, START bus will be more than happy to take you back over the pass. ย As aways the music is free.

Theย Bluegrass Festival is not a bad way to spend the weekend. ย It is a must see if you are one of those in town that cannot get enough of this music. ย The show starts on 4pm Friday evening and ends Sunday evening at the Trap Bar. ย There are 17 bands total with the main shows being Infamous Stringbusters, Yonder Mountain Sting Band, and Railroad Earth. ย For all three days is is $135, $40 for Friday, $55 Saturday and $45 on Sunday. ย There is camping offered and there are other lodging options on their website.
