Rainier Round Up and Bluegrass Festival

32nd Rainier Round Up and Bluegrass Festival week in Rainier

32nd year of FREE to attend Bluegrass Music
This year, the Rainier High School band will be cooking all three days with a new menu
Rachael Stephenson, a member of the Boosters Club, says they are adding pulled pork and Mexican corn to this year’s menu. Breakfast Friday through Saturday. Friday and Saturday nightly corn feed. They will be there Thursday through Sunday morning. What a great way to support our school.
Have a family picnic at the park and listen to the music
Friday night street dance in Holiday Park, featuring the Randy Band, 6 to 10 pm. Last year there truly “was dancing in the street.” What fun
Friday night also features Bluegrass open mike in Wilkowski Park starting at 6 pm. It’s a great way for players to get on stage in front of a crowd.
Saturday starts with the Round Up Days parade, and it promises to be one of the best small town parades ever. Still time to sign up at cityofrainier.org. Why not be in a parade?
Saturday, starting at 10 am, there is a large vendor market with a dunk tank and games along Rt 507
David Wuller has the Bluegrass stage show scheduled to run for 1 pm to 7 pm in Wilkowski park.
Some of this year’s performers are
The Dills
Band of Friends
100 Huckleberries
Thurston County Line
Hardshell Harmony and more
There will also be picking and jamming at the campsites in the evenings all week long

Sunday morning, the bluegrassers get together and play good old country gospel music at 9 30 am. It comes along with free coffee and donuts; always a great show
