Medora to Honor Wade Westin

Medora will be hosting an event called Wade Westin Music Fest on Labor Day, September 7, 2009 to honor Wade Westin, who was a well-known cast member, “Gentleman Wade,” in the Medora Musical. He also was the Marketing Director the Theodore Roosevelet Medora Foundation (TRMF) when he suddenlty passed away this past February.

The Wade Westin Music Fest will feature many performances, including Good Shepherd Lutheran Church’s Worship Team from Bismarck, ND, Jared and Noni Mason and family, Medora Musical cast members, and members of the Coal Diggers which is the Medora Musical band.

The music fest will be held at the Burning Hills Amphitheatre in Medora, ND. It will begin at 2 pm. The event will be free and open to the public, with a suggested donation of $10 per person, which will go the Wade Westin Memorial Fund.
