Music at Lost Dutchman with Steve Jones
Lost Dutchman State Park
Monthly Times vary
Join Yampa Valley Steve (Steve Jones), a singer-songwriter for a night of musical entertainment at the Lost Dutchman State Park in the Palo Verde Day Use Area. As the sun sinks in the western sky, painting a golden glow on Superstition Mountain, enjoy Steve’s songs and stories. All of the songs, whether John Denver, Eagles, Irish, folk or original will have a western connection.
Bring a chair, or use the picnic benches (though not quite as comfy as your favorite chair). You will be asked to sing along on some songs, so don’t forget to hydrate!
Concert is free with paid park entry.
