We have been going to this jam for years and love it. It begins about 4:30 with old style country and bluegrass. There is limited seating in the community center where the bands take turns using the stage for about 45 minutes. Jam groups play in several places around the property so bring lawn chairs. Hot dogs, cheeseburgers and fries are available at reasonable prices and the proceeds support the upkeep of the property. Otherwise, the entertainment is free. Hope to see you there!

"Just wanted to make some comments about the Ocoee parking lot jam on Friday Nights. There are a bunch of talented musicians at this event... a couple banjos, bass, dobro, fiddles, guitars and mandolins - all making some GREAT sounds. Non-playing folks just pull up and plunk down in their lawn chairs and soak it all in. Who can believe this kind of entertainment is free??? You have to come by and see what all the funs all about. Anyone is welcome to play along, even beginners. Check it out!"
