Blugrass Band Added To Trotwood's Harvest Fest Saturday


By Bruce Kettelle

The Rock Island Plow Co, a bluegrass group from western Ohio, will bring it on this Saturday afternoon in Trotwood during the 11th Annual Iams Homestead Harvest Fest. The group strives to revitalize listeners to those songs which may have been forgotten since the early days of bluegrass and make them favorites once again. And the setting will be perfect amid the antique tractor displays and demonstrations depicting an early 1900’s corn harvest at the festival.

The festival hours are 10-5 Saturday October 10th at 249 South Broadway in Trotwood. To celebrate the band’s performance the Trotwood Madison Historical Society has arranged for the first time display of several Rock Island tractors. The group will perform after 2pm.

Admission is free and food is available. Come early for a hayride. For additional information contact Claude Keeling at 837-5387.
