Cool Weekend in Rural Pott. Co - art tour, demo derby, Cole Rath, pancakes, etc!

So it is a jam-packed weekend in Pott. Co!  So excited to be able to say that! 

Tonight you can catch our local boy, Cole Rath at the Crescent Roadhouse Bar & Grill starting at 7 or you can check out the Figure 8 Races at Westfair starting at 7:30.

Tomorrow brings lots of options!  Your day can start with pancakes from Botna Bend in Hancock as they are having their annual pancake feed but it is drive-thru only this year so you need to call or go online and pre-register to get said pancakes in the morning.  And the syrup – well, it comes from sap they took from their very own maple trees!  Yum!

Also on the pre-register list is The Most Generous Table in Avoca.  Avoca Main Street always ends their farmers market season with The Longest Table down Elm with a bunch of courses of food that is farm to table and very gourmet.  Well, thanks to COVID, they decided to do a drive-thru version instead.  So call today if you want to pick up between 4 and 6pm tomorrow eve!

Of course, we have to talk about the HUGE event that’s happening tomorrow, too!  The Southwest Iowa Arts Tour is only one day this year and it’s Saturday!  From 10 to 6, you can hit 7 towns and 9 stops to see 51 different artists.  I have a blog all about it that you should check out!  There are actually 2 stops in rural Pott. Co. – one at Avoca at the corner of Elm and Crocker and the other is at The Painted Camel in Macedonia.  I have to say, yet again, if you haven’t been, you really need to go.  I was completely shocked the first time I went at how many talented people we have around here and what they make.  It’s so cool and you just want to help them out and get all those Christmas gifts done!

The day ends with another one of my fave events – a demo derby!  I have fond memories of crashing cars and smart aleck drivers!  They are hosting at Westfair tomorrow night at 6pm.

Sunday offers a neat event you don’t see very often – a bridal flea market.  So basically all those people who are done getting married can sell the stuff to the people who are getting ready to get married!  It’s free to attend and it’s happening at The Palace Event Center outside Treynor.

Seriously, that’s a crazy fun weekend if I do say so myself!
