LITTLE BILL and THE BLUE NOTES Saturday Evening 8:30pm - 11:30pm on the Main Stage In his career that spans over 40 years , Bill has played nearly every club and concert hall in the Northwest, including such legendary venues as Parkers Ballroom, The Aquarius, The Spanish Castle, and Lake Hills Roller Rink When you think of Blues Musicians in the Northwest one of the first names that comes to mind is "Little Bill" Englehart. After all he has been a fixture on the music scene here since he first started playing in the mid fifties. He's managed to survive the excesses of the sixties, the disco of the seventies, the urban cowboys and the techno pop of the eighties and in the process has become one of the premier players out there today. In fact Bill has become somewhat of a Blues "Icon" who's looked up to by younger musicians and seasoned veterans alike as someone that's been there and paid the dues. In addition to all of the above Bill is a consummate professional, believing that he owes each and every one of his audiences no matter how large or how small the absolute best performance that he can give.
VALENTINE PERFORMING PIGS Saturday 1:00pm - 2:00pm and 4:00pm - 5:00pm on the Main Stage Valentines Performing pigs is a unique, fast-paced act that consists of mini pigs doing tricks and incredible athletic feats on a very large stage. As music plays, the dazzling swiners dance, jump in the air, play catch with the audience, run up teeter totters, slam dunk basketballs, pop balloons, roll barrels and madly roar across the stage on scooters and skateboards! The audiences go HOG WILD!
Fast Track Entertainment Kids Pedal Tractor Pull Competition Events held all day on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! It's not every day a kid gets a chance to become a star of the show, unless of course he or she is at the Kids Pedal Tractor Pull Competition. Kids, ages four to twelve, are welcome to join in the show for free and try their skill in a John Deere Pedal Tractor Pull. Each tractor has been modified for heavy pulling and is attached to a weight transfer sled. The sled is filled with a certain amount of weight determined by the age of each participant. The four year olds start with 25 pounds and the twelve year olds pull as much as 250 pounds. Every child is introduced to the audience, encouraged to do their best, and praised for their accomplishments. Some kids do exceptionally well and are able to pedal the tractor all the way down the 25 foot path. Those kids go to the finals where things really begin to get wild! Regardless of the outcome, it is the mission of the show director to positively uplift each child and help to create a more healthy self esteem. Fast Track Entertainment has been performing kids shows at fairs and festivals since 1994. The Kids Pedal Tractor Pull Competition is always "tops" for audience participation, education, and down home fun! The owner, Alan, states, "the kids make our show special, it's all about them. The performance is a celebration of kids' accomplishments. The show not only allows the opportunity for kids to experience something unique, but also to learn a little about the importance of farming and its future.
