The weather map has been driving us crazy for two weeks. Over that period the prediction for our Jamboree event, Friday, January 20, 2017, has fluctuated from 47 and sunny, to rain, to 1-3 inches of snow, to dry! It looks like it is settling in to be partly cloudy with no precipitation across the state. I am much relieved because this means most of you can get to Golden with minimal stress and sift through another abundant exhibit hall of diverse Colorado talent to find the best partners for the events you offer in your communities.

Once again we have what you’ve come to expect at the Jamboree – some of the best players in the state as well as new rising stars talking about and offering samples of their work. The work includes large dance bands, small ensembles for intimate listening, groups working in ethnic heritage traditions, circus-style acts, puppets, ventriloquists (well one…), stilt walkers, cover bands, and individuals and groups performing only their original compositions. Really, there is a lot to choose from. More than 100 acts!

We are calling you to Golden from the far reaches of the state – Craig, Dolores, Sterling, La Junta, “The Springs,” “Junction,” Crested Butte. Well, if you’re in Crested Butte, we’ll send you the Guide – Which the postman will bring in the spring… !!

Join us again this year for THE most efficient and fun talent scouting event in the state!

[Take 6th Avenue to Indiana Street (west of I-70 turn, and east of Simms). Go south about 1 block. Watch for the signs that say “Fairgrounds”. Turn right and follow the service road around. Take the main entrance to the fairgrounds. Look UP the hill to your right. You will see a big building with lots of parked cars. That’s it!]
