The Southwest Florida Bluegrass Assoc.
The next Heartland-Southwest Florida Bluegrass Music Association Event will be on Sept 23, 2023.
This will be our last show in the Recreation Hall, and we will be moving out back to the big stage in October. All camping will be up front as well for this one. We had a great turn out for the August show. The camping up front is really nice, and at $25 for a full hook up you cannot really beat it.
We have a great show lined up with the following scheduled performances. Really looking forward to this one. There will be some great picking, and singing on stage:
