Entertainment & Activities
Beginning in July and runs through early Aug, this is an amazing mix of mostly classical, but also blue grass, opera and dance concerts. It is mainly a venue for rising musicians of high school or college that gives them a chance to work with professionals. The students give concerts and the professionals give concerts as well. They have some in their "tent" but they also are performing in small quartets around the area, even at beautiful lookouts!
