NC AgFest 5.22.10
After months of practice, we competed in the NC AgFest Competition. The North Carolina Agricultural Festival comes around once a year during the third week of May. It's a "Spring into Spring" festival. It's like the State Fair in the Spring. It was a beautiful day and we thoroughly enjoyed it! After competing against 7 other bands, the Lord blessed us with 3rd Place! So, Glory Be to God! Before performing, we had a short prayer, praying that the Lord's will would be done, and that He would receive all Honor, Glory and Praise. And HE did! We congradulate Sourwood Mountain Bluegrass Band for placing 2nd and McFarland Road Band for placing 1st! We also thank all of you who came out to support us! It was greatly appreicated. We look forward to playing there again. Below are some photos from today.
