Two-Mile Music Fest features cars, crafts and country

by Lisa Schauer

The third annual Two-Mile Music Fest was held on a picture-perfect Saturday, August 2 at Kirkland Park in Hancock.

Headlined by Nashville’s Adam Calvert, and featuring performances by Zac Grace and Jake Groft, the festival was a celebration of contemporary country music.

A car show drew admirers of the American classics. The show was larger than in past years, with trophies awarded at the end.

A custom ’57 Chevy Handyman Wagon, one of only 4,800 made and few remaining, was a magnet at the Two-Mile car show in Hancock on Saturday, August 2. The wagon’s Hedgesville owner said he turned down $90,000 for the classic because it’s not for sale.

Crafters and other vendors were set up on the lawn displaying their wares.

Hamburgers, hot dogs, cotton candy, homemade baked goods, and fresh-squeezed lemonade were available under the large wooden pavilion.

Proceeds from the event go to benefit Martha’s House, a youth center and feeding site which is a ministry of the Interfaith Service Coalition in Hancock.
