James Stanley, There is also a festival over Labor Day Week in Avoca, Iowa, depending on how far you want to travel. Avoca is on the western side of Iowa on Interstate 80. It is a week long national festival. I read somewhere that it is the largest gathering of singers of public domain music anywhere in the US. I live on Iowa's "east coast" and since I teach, I am always busy over Labor Day, but the first year I retire, I am going for the whole week! Maj Marvelous from Mapleton, Have you been to the festival at Avoca?
