PFAC Presents SOUNDCHECK 5 with BOOM CHICK, HYMN FOR HER, LOVES IT!
Saturday :: June 30, 2012:: 5 pm :: Free :: American Legion Park in Pinedale, Wyoming

It's that time of the year again. The Pinedale Fine Arts Council will be presenting the fifth annual Soundcheck Mini-Music Fest on June 30, 2012 in the American Legion Park in Pinedale (5 p.m., free). Sound Check was first conceived five years ago following PFAC's purchase of a new sound system via grant monies from the Wyoming Cultural Trust. The inagural event was a hit so it became an annual festival with attendance growing each year. Take a look at past Souncheck's via the links below. This is sure to be the music event of the summer so mark the date on the calendar, dust off your cooler and camp chairs and come listen to some great music!
