When you absolutely, positively can’t find the real thing on your own. We’re about to give you some guidance on rat rod wheels but know up front that we do so with a certain amount of trepidation: it’s hard to paint lane lines on a road that hasn’t been paved. This is not some riddle
Free outdoor concert series are as much of a summer staple as festivals, barbecues and losing Frisbees on the roof.
Several new series in downtown Fo .
WATERLOO â The Waterloo Town Council has a new member, but he is no stranger to the town.
Greg Iddings has joined the five-member council after a Republican caucus elected him Tuesday to fill a vacancy created by David Boltonâs resignation.
The caucus meeting in the Waterloo Grant Township Public Library turned out to be a formality, because Iddings was the only applicant for the open council seat.
âI like the town. I like being here,â Iddings said before precinct committee leaders Jess Jessup, Josh Caudill and Sue Bauermeister elected him. Jessup and Caudill also are council members.
Iddings will complete Boltonâs term that runs through Dec. 31, 2023. Bolton resigned after 9 1/2 years on the council because he has moved to a home in rural DeKalb County.
AUBURN â The Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum will present the first in its series of free outdoor concerts Thursday from 5:30-8:30 p.m. in the museumâs plaza.
Addison Agen of Fort Wayne will perform in the concert presented in partnership with Country Heritage Winery, Mad Anthonyâs Brewing Company and the DeKalb County Visitors Bureau.
Addison is an Americana singer-songwriter best known as first runner-up on Season 13 of NBCâs âThe Voice.â
Based in Fort Wayne, the 19-year-old uses her raw and heart-wrenching voice to invite listeners of all kinds to be grateful and self-reflective.
Agenâs honest storytelling and simplicity earned her an opening slot with Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band, as well as with Kevin Baconâs The Bacon Brothers in 2019. Her music transforms lived experiences into songs woven together with themes of nostalgia, acceptance, hopefulness and joy.
AUBURN â The Auburn Cord Duesenberg Festival will sponsor a new event, Auburn Americana, on Friday, Sept. 3, and Saturday, Sept. 4, during this yearâs classic car festival
The new event will take place at the DeKalb County Fairgrounds on South Union Street in Auburn from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days, the festival said in an announcement Tuesday.
Auburn Americana events will include a 400-space swap meet, a 500-space car corral and a car show featuring âThe Year of the Woody.â These new events will run concurrently with the traditional ACD Festival events that are held annually on the Friday and Saturday of Labor Day weekend.
