    Bluegrass in the Pines will feature local favorites Acme Bluegrass, The Ackermans and Grass It Up. Headlining the show will be national artists Pete Wernick and Flexigrass. Wernick was founder of the very popular bluegrass band Hot Rize.

    Families are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets, kites, balls, Frisbee's and (because the swimming pool is open), bathing suits.

    Jeff Bieri, Program Director at KRCC says "There's always been an audience for Americana and Bluegrass here at KRCC. Along with the recent addition of the "Grass Roots Revival" show with Steve Harris on Wednesday evenings, we're very happy to introduce the community to the beautiful facilities at historic La Foret with what we hope will be the first of many "Bluegrass in the Pines" concerts.

    Bluegrass In The Pines is being sponsored by KRCC, Bristol Brewing, Colorado Springs Independent, Bee Vradenburg Foundation and A Music Company Inc.

    "The setting for Bluegrass in the Pines is just magnificent," explains Amy Whitesell of A Music Company Inc, "and with the admission being kept at just $10 per carload for this family friendly event, I can't think of a better way to spend a summer day in Colorado."

    More information may be obtained through KRCC FM at 719-473-4801 or through their website at www.krcc.org .
