The 39th annual Bluegrass & Old Time Fiddlers Convention in Jefferson

July 31 - Aug 1 at Ashe Park in Jefferson. The 39th annual Bluegrass & Old Time Fiddlers Convention will expand to two days this year: July 31 & August 1, 2009 at Ashe Park. With the expanded format will come several changes – expanded times and competitions, increased camping opportunities and more! With over $3,600 in prize money, our focus this year is to become musician-centered as we honor the Old Time and Bluegrass music of the mountains and the musicians who make it. Ashe County has a rich history in the roots of what eventually evolved into the current country music industry, and continues to raise up some of the best musicians in the nation. http://www.ashefiddlers.com/
