Poultry Days
Social Tent Rocks!
This year the Social Tent takes things to another level with TEN live
musical acts and an expanded beverage selection. This year we
offer TEN acts representing varied musical styles. From Saw Creek and
the MicStand Band’s country, to Empty Tank and Eight Ball’s rock, to
solo acoustic, and the “under the streetlight” music of the ‘60s and
‘70s of the Quintessentials. In addition, one of the top party
bands in Ohio, Tricky Dick & The Cover-Ups, will be traveling from
Cleveland with their own style of high energy rock funk. With a
Social Tent that can hold over 2,000 people you can choose to be up
front by the music, at a table by the small bar or under the stars with
our outside seating for 300. And if you haven’t heard we will be
offering barbecue chicken at the festival which we hope will be popular.
