Plan for this June – Huge Music Festival in Welch, Minnesota

The summers in Central Minnesota are something that most of us look forward to.  Generally we pack as much as we can into those 3-4 months of warm and sometimes hot weather.  There's camping, outdoor sports, family reunions, and of course, music festivals and shows.  Those happen all over the place, and unfortunately, with the cost of things rising, you may have to pick and choose which ones you are going to be able to attend.
