In an earlier post I mentioned that the Douglas. WY, Contest and the MRBA's Spring Festival in Stevensville, MT, were taking place that second weekend in April. I neglected to also list the Bluegrass Association of North Dakota Annual Gathering would also be held on April 11 and 12 at the Hampton Inn and Suites at 2020 Schafer Street in Bismarck, ND. This includes two nights of jamming, the annual meeting, a catered dinner, and a band scramble. There will also be a concert of ND's bluegrass bands at the Baptist Nursing Home and a silent auction of items for attendees to bid on. A jam contest to win Bill Monroe related bluegrass items sounds like fun, too. The election of new officers will also be held.
Bluegrass activity is definitely cranking up over this tri-state area as summer approaches. Whether a picker or a fan be sure to participate in some of these fun events.
