The Lenora Jubilee Association is ready for a big week. The highlight of this year’s Jubilee is Nashville recording artist, Greg Bates, as the featured performer on Friday night at 8 p.m.

Bates’ single “Did it for the Girl” was in the top 20 hits for American County Music and also hit the top-five in radio airplay. Greg Bates made his Grand Ole Opry debut in April of 2012.  “We are excited to have Greg coming to Lenora Kansas.  It is great to see these emerging artists come to our venue.  We are known for finding the best new artists and introducing them to Western Kansas,” said Scott Sproul, Lenora Jubilee Chairman.

Saturday night’s concert will kick off with Hays natives, Chad Stoecklein and Jeremy Schumacher of DoC and will feature Reggie Shaw, current Nashville Recording Artist hailing originally from Overton, Nebraska.  Reggie Shaw has been featured on Galaxy of the Stars Talent Search and the Colgate Country Showdown.  He was also one of the top five finalists in the National Texaco Country Showdown in Nashville.  “Reggie is making some noise on the music scene.  He is a very personable artist that puts on a great show.  Reggie will be one to watch in the future,” said Kate Otter of the Lenora Jubilee Entertainment Committee

Saturday is packed with fun events for the entire family.  Professional Showoff, The Amazing Arthur will be performing in the parade, as well as two shows in the afternoon. Y102 will lead a sanctioned pedal tractor pull. Other activities will include everything from yard sales to bingo to critter races; there is something for everyone.
