First brought up by members of the community and the new Town Board early this year, Saturday night August 6 will see the culmination of the hard work by many to offer a free family fun night, open to all the residents of Grafton. [private]The highlight of the night will be a free concert by the musical group Whiskey Highway, recently nominated by the North Country Music Association for Best Band. Lead singer Kyle Bourgault was also nominated by the Association as Best Lead Vocalist for 2016.
The band was formed by a group of area musicians in 2014, and specializes in modern country with some well-known classics mixed in. The fun night is a collaboration of several town organizations, such as the Youth Group, the Grafton Fire Department and Ladies Auxiliary. A bounce house, cotton candy and face painting will help keep the young ones entertained, while refreshments will also be available throughout the night. The event starts at 4 pm at the VFW Post on South Rd (County Route 85) with the band starting at 6 pm. [/private]
