SUMMARY:Louder Than Doubt
DESCRIPTION:Formed in 2025 out of a makeshift practice space in Harrisonburg\, VA\, Vessira began with four college students and a shared dream. Fueled by faith\, the Bible\, and more than a few Krispy Kremes\, the band channels their beliefs into alt rock rooted in honesty and emotion. With themes of struggle\, hope\, and uncertainty\, Vessira seeks to unite listeners from all walks of life. No matter who’s on the other side of the track\, the message remains the same: you are never alone. God bless—and rock on.

SUMMARY:These Rocks Tell a Story
DESCRIPTION:Join a ranger led tour to reveal what the landscape of Cedar Creek is trying to tell you. \nJust as the structure of a house determines how you use it\, what is going on beneath our feet determines what can grow here and what animals will call it home. A park ranger will lead you on a guided hike of Cedar Creek trail and under the Natural Bridge to discover what the landscape tells you about what lives here and why. \nEnjoy an hour long\, one mile walk and see what these 470 million year old stones have to say! \nPre-registration is required and space is limited. To register\, call (540) 254-0795. Prepayment is taken at time of registration by credit card over the phone\, and you will be emailed a receipt. That receipt is good for admission to the Natural Bridge the rest of the day after your tour! \nParks are for everyone – the trail is flat and accessible\, but to access it requires going down (and back up) 137 stairs. If this will be difficult for anyone in your group\, please let us know when registering and we will have alternative transportation available.

SUMMARY:501 Coyotes
DESCRIPTION:Based in the heart of Lynchburg\, Virginia\, 501 Coyotes hail from the crossroads of punk energy and country grit. They fused the back-porch soul of Americana with a hard-driving\, no-frills punk ethos. With lyrics that cut close to the bone and a sound that hits like a freight train. \nFrom raucous bar shows to late-night porch jams\, 501 Coyotes channel the spirit of the South with edge and authenticity. No polish\, no pretense-  just raw\, honest music for anyone who’s ever felt too punk for Nashville and too country for the city.
