Erntefest Freistatt Lions Club

We are pleased to announce that Prime Cuts of Monett will be catering food at this event and offering hamburger cheeseburger, smoked turkey legs, and other items. This is in addition to the tractional German food that will be offered at the Snack Shack. One change this year is that the meal that has normally been offered will not be avilable but rather will be available al a carte at the Snack Shack. Hope to see your there. Please visit http://www.erntefest.org/ to see current flyers and scheduled events and activities.

We have retained the services of Nixa Party Station to provide for rides and children entertainment for this year's festival. You can see some of the rides that will be available during the festival by visiting their website www.nixapartystation.com. As we did last year we will be hosting Family Night on Thursday the 6th during which time children rides and entertainment will be available as well as food from vendors and our Snack Shack. In addition to Brats we will also have available Hamburger and other food options.

Update. The Committe has selected bands for this year's ErnteFest. We again will have the Alpine Express Band with Terry Cavanagh on the main stage. There is a couple of changes this year. Instead of the trio that played last year Terry is bringing a four piece band adding a trumpet player and playing from 7:30-11:30 both Friday and Saturday night. For you that where able to attend last year you will remember how entertaining this group was and how they engaged the audienc...e. It was truly a lot of fun. On the second stage we will be having two local groups. On Friday The Playboyz with Travis Scott will be playing and Saturday night we will again have the Mark Chapman Band. I think you will find both of these bands entertaining. For more information on the Alpine Express visit their website at http://www.terrycavanagh.com. Mark Chapman Band also has a website at http://www.markchapmanband.com. I currently do not have website for the Playboyz but I understand that they do have a Facebook page and I will attempt to locate that and provide you information. As always it should be a fun time. So mark your calendar. We should also be having some information shortly regarding children entertainment planned for the ErnteFest See more

I want to give everyone a heads up. The Club has opted to move the date for the ErnteFest to the 2nd weekend in August in lieu of the 3rd weekend. That means that the 2015 ErnteFest will be held on the 7th and 8th. This decision was prompted by a growing list of conflicts with our current date and it was the Club opinion that in moving the date for the festival that we would minimize some of these issues. Hopefully you will share this information with your friends and others who attend this event. As always we very much appreciate your support of this fund raiser for the Freistatt Lions Club We would also encourage you to go our website for updates and information on the 2015 festival.
