Circle Z Ranch's Barn Dance

Keeping the Music Alive Country Style 


This week we are getting out the musical instruments and riding fast to keep country music alive with our upcoming Circle Z’s Keeping the Music Alive Barn Dance. It’s happening this Saturday, March 17th and is a fantastic opportunity to support Music in Our Schools Month in March. We are huge supporters of keeping music alive in our schools and there’s no better way to support it but by partnering up with one of our local school’s choir and band program for our 2018 barn dance.

This year’s chosen school was Colorado Springs School, and we specifically partnered up with their Upper Band and Choir Program to bring you all a very special treat. Each year, we choose a school either from the elementary or high school level to be recipients of our grant through our Circle Z Ranch Country Music Foundation. Our foundation was established because of our strong belief to support country music. The process to apply for the grant consists of an application completed by each of the school’s band and choir program indicating their needs for support. With the overwhelming support of our foundation from our investors, we have been encouraged to support country music even further in conjunction with Music in Our Schools Month through our social media efforts and this year’s barn dance. All of the proceeds from the dance will go to their choir and band program. Their program is in significant need to replace old instruments, purchase additional music, and cover transportation cost to both band and choir events. We were extremely excited to financially help them not only through our foundation but also through donating all our proceeds from this year’s barn dance to their programs. The timing was perfect with March being Music in Our School Month and it allowed us to combine the two efforts.

Now that you have heard all about why we are supporting Music in Our Schools this week and our foundation, let us tell you a little bit more about the event. It will take place right here at Circle Z Ranch starting with a chuck wagon meal from 5-6 pm with all the great fixins. The dance will kick off at 7 and ends at 9. We encourage you all to come on out and kick up your boots a bit to support not only the country music that we all enjoy but also our local Colorado Springs School's Band and Choir Program. 

For full details on the event, check out our Facebook event page on either Facebook or Twitter. We look forward to seeing you all there this weekend and please make sure to bring the whole family. In the event you are unable to attend, but still want to support their local band and choir efforts, you may donate directly to them through our website event page. Thank you all in advance for your support. We are very humbled by your kind generosity to help such a great cause. 

As we say here at the ranch “happy trails”, but this time until March 29th when we return from taking a little trail ride vacation ourselves the week of the 19th to visit family and friends in Wisconsin.
