JUNE 27, 2015
Gazebo at the Rossville, TN, Town Square |
The first-ever bluegrass and old-time music jam at the Rossville, TN, Town Square was held on Saturday, June 27, 2015. What a glorious day it was for bluegrass and old-time music. Musicians and fans alike came out to play and listen to the music we all love! There is no jam on Saturday, the Fourth of July. The restaurant and businesses on the Rossville Town Square will be closed for the holiday. The music jam will return on Saturday, July 11, 2015.
With the Town's hearty approval, Cindy Krag, of www.cindykragcatering.com stepped up to sponsor the event. Cindy and Betty Knox Salmon are joint owners of The Original Wolf River Café and the new town square gift store called In High Cotton. We are so grateful for their help in launching the jam! They invite you to eat at the café and to shop at the gift store. Furthermore, we can tell you that this is an ongoing event on Saturday evenings (5:30-9:00 PM Central) until rainy weather delays or postpones the event. Look for us on the Rossville Historic Town Square until about mid-October, when the musicians will take a break until the spring of 2016.
There is delicious fried catfish with all the trimmings at The Wolf on Friday ('til 10 PM), Saturday ('til 9:30 PM), and Monday ('til 8:00 PM). In addition, there is a full menu of other items and good ol' iced tea! In High Cotton Gift Shop stays open late on the nights that the café is also open late. Drop in and shop for that special gift for someone!
