The 25 Annual th

Fort Rowdy Gathering

SEPT. 2 SEPT. 3 SEPT. 4
OPENING CEREMONIES SET FOR SEPT. 2
Opening ceremonies for the 2017 Fort Rowdy Gathering will begin at 10 a.m. on Saturday,
Sept. 2, on the main stage in the Covington Community Park. Following the Flag Raising, the
Covington Marching Band will play the National Anthem. Johanna McGrath will then lead
everyone in the singing of God Bless America. The festival committee would like to welcome
all state and local dignitaries, the 2017 Grand Marshals, Ron and Judy Schultz, and the pub-
lic to the 25th Gathering.

Welcome to the 2017 Fort Rowdy Gathering!

The Board of Directors would like to extend a warm welcome to the 25th annual Fort Rowdy Gathering to be held September
2nd, 3rd, and 4th at the Covington Community Park.
Its hard to believe that this Gathering has been in existence for 25 years. It was the brain storming of 20 people. Several
of those are deceased, some are no longer involved, but one individual has been here the whole duration. (Thanks Steve Wright
for being the rock).
Many changes have occurred during these 25 years; however, the emphasis of reenacting the bygone days of the 1700s
frontier life is still strong.
Our gathering allows you to walk across our 208 wooden bridge expanding the Stillwater River that connects present day
festivities to the encampment side.
On the present day side you may enjoy entertainment on our stage, lots of good food, and craft vendors. On the encamp-
ment side you will observe the way of life from the past. Enjoy the aroma of campfires and food cooking over the open fire.
Many hours have been spent planning for this great event for all ages to enjoy.
I would like to thank all the Board members, committee chairpersons, their families, volunteers, and the community for their
support in the many ways you contribute. Without the generous time and money you each give or have given this event would
not be possible.
So, please, each of you come and enjoy a relaxing weekend making memories of this event.
Annette Miller
2017 Fort Rowdy Gathering Chairman
