Fun Things to do in Leavenworth

I love this town.

Every weekend something new and exciting is happening.

This weekend is the Accordion Festival.

 Accordion players from all over have met here for the weekend to play, have workshops, give lessons, and just be with one another.
 At noon everyone gathered at the gazebo for a concert.  What a thrill it was to walk into town and hear everyone singing "Eldeweiss".  There is always such as fun and lively spirit in town.  You can't help but smile and find yourself singing along.
 There were players of all ages.
 Then everyone was off to carry their music through the streets of Leavenworth with a parade.
How fun is that?!
Ok...so he does not have an accordion, but every good parade needs a tuba player.

Next weekend is the International Dance Festival.  We will certainly have to check that one out. 
Stay tuned!
