Mushroom Mardi Gras Entertainment, Part 2

 

 

 

 

 

 

The festival has several stages and areas for music performance.   The center stage is at the downtown amphitheater.

 

 

This is a smaller venue.




At one corner, there are two matured gents playing music instruments.

 

At a corner there is a poster for a youth band.

The young performers are very enthusiastic in their performance.
 

This young band is actually the best of all the music entertainment in the festival.

Little Franchescas

Franchesca accomplished a lot on the show table with 20 Best In Show and 9 Reserve In Show, then at 17 months old won the BOV and Best Overall Wool at the ARBA convention.  She was on the Steve Harvey Show and a German TV program. In addition, she has a record that is so unique that an official announcement will be made in September of 2015.

She retired from the show circuit after the ARBA convention, rested for a while then entered the next phase of her life: she became a mother and raised a litter of beautiful bunnies that look just like her.



The four peas in a pod are the little Franchescas.



Aren't they a cute bunch?

Who will be the standout show bunny when they grow up?
