Chris Cagle, who, since his debut on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles & Tracks in 2000, rocked the crowd with his top-ten hits including his #1 hit in 2002, “I Breathe in I Breathe Out”, “What a Beautiful Day”, “Chicks Dig It”, “What Kinda Gone” and many more.
Also on the line-up, Texas’s The Josh Abbott Band, the “fastest rising young stars in Texas country.” All of their songs are written or co-written by Josh Abbott, including their latest hit “She’s Like Texas”.  As well as, Denver’s own up-and-coming star, the Kory Brunson Band, whose first singles were released this year with a very positive response from Denver’s country fans and KYGO.  They played new country-with-a-twist-of-rock, including “Hard Country” and “Good Clean Dirty Fun.”
The free music started at noon and kept entertaining well past 6! We all had a blast enjoying some of today’s best Country music, thank you to all the artists, KYGO and the Winter Park-Fraser Valley Chamber of Commerce for this great day in the mountains!

The walk/run began at 9am at the Fraser Visitor Center and ran south along the Fraser River ending in Winter Park at Cooper Creek Square. At the finish line we were greeted with food, prizes, a silent auction and a live KCMV radio broadcast. We had a blast! Hope you will join us next year!
