About Us **From The Heart**
A Memorial is held once a year in memory of country musician, Larry Dee. For one day in August he will be remembered by hundreds of people at the home of Paul & Charlene Wasson, when they stage their annual Musician's Corn Roast. The event started twenty years ago with about 40 to 50 people and today hundreds come through the gate. A modest admission is charged and all proceeds from the day's event go to a local charity. What once started out as a party, has now grown to quite a large event. Professional entertainers are brought in to headline the day's festivities, and there's a jam session for everybody else who wants to play. A large trailer was donated by Roadrunners to use as a stage. Folks bring their lawn chairs and coolers and sit around enjoying the music. The event has a lot to offer everyone. There are displays set up and games for the children and adults. We also have the BEST corn anyone could ever want. You are invited! Join us and be a part of this great day.
