Original post:

After communicating with the National Weather Service out of Dodge city and the Ellis County Emergency Manager the Wild West Fest committee feels it is in the best interest of safety of our community and our attendees to delay tonight's concerts.

The incoming storm has a history of producing hail the side up to 1.75 inches and wind gust up to 60 mph.

It is our intention to open our gates as soon as the storm passes. Please continue to follow Facebook and our partners with Eagle Radio for additional updates.

Early indications indicate we might be able to open our gates shortly after the 7 o’clock hour.
