Americana
on the Rock
Friday, July 17
6:00 – 9:00 PM
Join us on July 17 on the FAC patio for an evening of live music, friendly competition, and classic Americana — right in the heart of Fort Atkinson. Free and open to the public. Rain or shine.
Hungry? We’ve got you covered. Concessions include hot dogs, brats, ice cream, beer, and Mike’s Hard Lemonade. (Cash only, please.)
This is a free, family-friendly community event. We’ll see you there.
The Mark Hembree Band takes the stage from 6 to 9 PM, bringing the kind of sound that was made for summer nights by the water. If you like authentic bluegrass played and sung the old-time way — spiced up with some down-home storytelling — you’ll love the Mark Hembree Band.
In between sets, get in on our live auction featuring pies, whiskey, baseball tickets, and other Americana-themed treasures — plus a 50/50 raffle with your chance to take home half the pot.
We prioritize inclusion and accessibility for all participants and offer reasonable accommodations for our events. For accommodation requests, email info@fortatkinsonclub.org at least two weeks prior. We’ll do our best to accommodate late requests.
