We are normally selling grilled fare to benefit various programs from Special Olympics to Providence High School Swim and Dive. No other alcohol permitted. All concerts are outside.

Get ready to get WOWED!!!  Not wild!  But wow, what music this band covers and the ranges they hit are beyond fantastic.  Yes, lots of brass.  Lots of great hits you'll recognize, some you'll recognize that didn't have brass when you heard it on the radio and now it does.  Absolutely fantastic!

The weather today is loaded with storms of all sorts and types.  If you were planning to come out for the awesome jazz, we'll still have our tents up with plenty of cover and we'll do barrel tastings inside.  Perhaps we can map out some future blends!!!!!   Rick and Bill, who run sound, have an exceptionally easy day with the Ron Jones Jazz Quartet.  Simply put, this group should be playing nationally at the top jazz festivals.  And some of them do.  This is jazz at its absolute finest.  Pure, clean, concise with superbly top notch musicians, the best of the best.  If you are new to jazz, turned off of jazz, give this a try.  Trust me.  This is the longest continuous group playing at Turtle Run Winery at the longest continuous concert series at wineries in the Midwest.  Something good must be going on.

Gosh, I hated to cancel this one.  UGH.  I have been looking at the weather since 5:00 AM today, Sunday, and now it's 9:00.  Listened to all of the forecasts.  I sense this one persistent spot in Illinois is going to affect us around 3:30 to 4:00 PM today with a gully-washer of rain, which is not so good for the musical equipment, and if there is lightning, not so good for the patrons either.  I really wanted to hear this band! Dang it...Jim   Here we go, we have masterful band of southern/folk rock, which should be highly entertaining and will really get you going musically.  Lots of instrumentations including the electric guitar, bass, drums, acoustic guitar, sax, and an amazing fiddle, 1 lead vocal, 3 backup vocals.  This should be great!
