Pickin' 2009

Our next evening of live music at Pickin' in the Park is Friday, May 21st, we hope to see you there! The music begins at 6pm in Wanda Priest Park.

Spring has come and with it a renewed commitment to a summer of music in Fredericktown. Fredericktown Revitalization Initiative is excited to announce that we have taken over management of Pickin’ and we’ve got big changes and big plans for the event this summer. We have arranged for a change in location to the park on North Main. In addition to the music we’re also planning a series of mini-festivals which will include a variety of activities for children as well as adults. We’re also planning a return of the popular “Movies in the Park” which will be shown each Friday after the musicians wind down.

The new team managing Pickin’ is full of energy and we plan to make this the most successful year yet. We’ll need your help to do it and are looking to you to sponsor Pickin’. Sponsorship is $50. In return we’ll add your logo to the Pickin’ t-shirt and will provide you with two t-shirts. You’ll also get a Pickin’ decal for your store window, banner placement at the event and a prominent thank-you on the FRI website! We’re developing a solid promotions campaign for the event this year and are confident that attendance will surge. We believe an event like Pickin’ can serve as an important element in a larger plan to build tourism and downtown business. Please join us in our effort to build our Main Street! If you're interested in sponsorship email Kyle. Come out and join us for the first night of Pickin' on Friday, May 21st at 6pm.
