RIVERFEST!
It's on
the River and it's a Fest. RIVERFEST!!! It began in 1999 when
the Pueblo Songwriters & Musicians Association and the Greenway &
Nature Center of Pueblo teamed up to feature local songwriters and musicians
taking stage on the banks of the Arkansas River. Every year talented
songwriters and musicians come together to share their talents as their
music flows eloquently into the air transcending magically into the backdrop
of nature and a rolling river.
The annual
event has grown over the past several years requiring two stages - The
Band Stage and the Acoustic Stage. 2001 brought about a new
twist for Riverfest enthusiasts when three great events were rolled into
one! The festivities feature, in addition to the Pueblo Songwriters
Riverfest, the Rolling River Raft Race and the Rolling River Rubber Duck
Regatta. Let's not forget the arts and crafts and the great food
and drink. Yes, it's one big party that's rolling on the river!
Bring your
sunscreen, your sunglasses, and a sunny disposition and set back and enjoy
a rendezvous rocking and rolling on the river with riffs, rafting, and
rubber ducks. Yeah - we call it RIVERFEST!!!
