An amazing event has found itself a home in the heart of Duluth. With the beautiful venue of Bayfront Festival Park, run by the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center, the sights were unforgettable. Located right on Lake Superior, a perfect weekend showed itself despite a few hours of rain on Saturday afternoon.

Minnesota Assistance Council for Veterans is a nonprofit organization. The MACV has been assisting veterans for over 25 years. This organization helps over 5,500 veterans and their families. One thing that many may not know is that 1% of the veterans in this state will experience an episode of homelessness this year.  MACV is there for around close to 4,100 who may experience homelessness.

Each night was within the genres of country and/or rock, and fans from all over came to rock the Bayfront Park. Many cover bands make a country tribute to artists and bands like Kenny Chesney, Eric Church, and Toby Keith. When the rock nights occurred, many tribute bands played music from Metallica, Def Leppard, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Kid Rock, Foreigner, Led Zepplin, and more.
