Olathe Corn Festival

We have our tickets ready for the Olathe Corn Festival in Olathe, Colorado approximately 30 mins from Grand Junction. We will be there tonight. The tickets include the entry to the festival and a live concert in which the country singer Travis Tritt will be preforming at the festival. Hubby said we could also have all you can eat grilled sweet corn. It's going to be exciting, this will be my first time to watch a live concert here in the US. Hubby and I loved country music and Travis Rush is one of his favorites.

Here's a bit of history about the Olathe Corn Festival.

"In 1992, a few insightful people in the small western Colorado town of Olathe, decided to celebrate the community's agricultural jewel... "Olathe Sweet" sweet corn by organizing the first Olathe Sweet Corn Festival. This hometown crop was and continues to be more than just another of the many agriculture products of the region. Sweet corn is the crop that kept this rural American community alive when other efforts were failing. Indeed, the citizens of the Town of Olathe, Colorado had cause for celebration."
