A MESSAGE FROM MAYOR KLING |
|
In 1967, Nampa held the first God & Country Rally. When it moved to the Ford Idaho Center in 2000, it became known as the God and Country Festival. The FREE non-denominational family-friendly event will be held Wed., June 30 starting at 5:30 p.m. at the Ford Idaho Center Amphitheater.
The festival includes great bands, military appreciation, civic awards, food, vendors and a large FIREWORKS display!
Thank you to the many volunteers who are working behind the scenes to make this event possible.
-Mayor Debbie Kling
PS Please remember to stay hydrated in this hot weather we're experiencing!
