This Summer....

I just spent the morning updating the community calendar (www.hastingscalendar.com) with summer events....

There is a lot going on this summer in Hastings... we are excited to host both the Nebraska Humanities Council Chautauqua and the Flatwater Folk Festival in July in addition to the already busy festival line-up including the Cottonwood Festival (June), Adams County Fairfest (July) and Kool-Aid Days (August).

Motorsport Hastings and the Smith Softball Complex have released their summer schedules and it doesn't look like there is a weekend this summer that we won't have racers or softball players in town. In addtion to their normal schedule MPH will host the Rocky Mountain Vintage Racing Showboat Grand Prix on August 29, 30 and 31st. If you have even the slightest appreciation for vintage cars or racing this event will blow you away.

Be sure check out the calendar for updates on special events coming up this summer and please if you are hoping to book a hotel room for a weekend this summer do it now!
