Brian Buchanan coming to Winchester!

Brian Buchanan; singer, songwriter and guitarist, is no stranger to country music. With countless appearances both locally and nationally, Brian has made several appearances on the Virginia Dreams Center Stage television show and is currently a performer on the Shenandoah Jamboree at Shenandoah Caverns. His style mixes classic country integrity with new and fresh arrangements and delivery. He cites the Statler Brothers, Faron Young, Don Williams, Ray Price, Marty Robbins, Rodney Crowell, and Buck Owens as major influences in his style and songwriting. His new CD project, Around The Bend is a mix of new original material and classic country songs, all deeply rooted in the traditional country style.

Family Fun Cars At the Frederick County Fairgrounds

Hogging Up BBQ & Music Festival has recently added attraction to our Family Fun Zone ….yep, family Fun Cars! These tiny cars are actually from New Zealand, and are fun cars for ages 3 to 93 (no joke!).  They have gas powered engines and you can race Grandmom against Grandson!   They are of course regulated so you can’t do the Audobahn but you can race your family and friends and zip around on the large track we’ll have at the Frederick County Fairgrounds in Winchester!  Brought to us by Jack Levi and his Family Fun Cars all the way from Virginia Beach!

Thanks for helping us support our cause!
