The second night of the 2007 Bushwhacker Days celebration featured fun, food and music -- mostly music, as local performers shared the stage on the Square, offering an eclectic mix of performances. Meanwhile, the stage at Mojo's restaurant, also on the Square, was the site of more local entertainment, featuring Matt Harper, joined by his brother, Doug Harper.

Tonight, the main stage will be the annual Colgate County Showdown, followed by Candy Coburn and Duke Mason on the main stage; and at Mojo's, Doug Harper is slated to perform.

The Coleman Musicmakers entertain with bluegrass-style flddin'.

Vendors will be setting up tonight, and vehicles are asked to vacate the Square by 5 o'clock to avoid delays and to make way for the vendors.

Nevada/Vernon County Chamber of Commerce director Kathi Wysong said vendor sites are sold out this year, so festival-goers will have a wide variety of things to see.

On Saturday, more music is in store as Ricochet, known for such songs as "Daddy's Money" and "What Do I Know," is slated to perform at 8 p.m.
