This year the Morrow County
Fair
will
feature
the
contemporary Christian band,
"Destiny Road," which has a
performance
scheduled
on
Saturday, Aug. 19, from 3:30-
4:30 p.m.
Destiny Road performed in
Heppner on St. Patrick's Day.
One of the members, Dave
Florea, is formerly of Heppner.
Most of the band's material is
original, with all five members of
the band writing various songs.
This band is very energetic and
fun to watch with lots of
audience participation. Although
the music will be appealing to
the "30-something" group, with a
beat similar to the Eagles, this
band is enjoyable for the whole
family.
The Morrow County Fair
Committee is bringing back a
favorite from last year, young
country singer Zac Grooms from
Arlington.
Zac will perform on Thursday,
Aug. 17, from 3-5 p.m.
Come and enjoy.
