Smoked
Country Jam 2008 is in memory of
Teresa's dad, Denver "Mac" McKinney. Born and raised in
Kentucky, he was a "hillbilly at heart", and would have loved
Smoked Country Jam. He passed away in 2003, the year before our first
festival. Here's to you Dad. We love & miss you!

Festival Guidelines & Regulations Smoked Country Jam should be an enjoyable experience for everyone. For your safety and protection of the venue, there are a few guidelines that we are asking everyone to follow. Doing so will help make the Smoked Country Jam a wonderful experience. Wristbands: Must be worn at all times. Stretched or torn wristbands will not be honored. Entering the festival without paying is trespassing. Freeloading, stealing, and cheating kills the scene. Don't let it happen. Pets: Allowed in the campground area only. Please control your pets at all times - by leash or by command. No pets in the festival grounds. Fireworks are prohibited: Setting off fireworks will result in expulsion from the festival. The noise and the potential fire hazard pose too great a risk. Bottles, Cans, & Kegs: Do not bring kegs to the festival. Please NO GLASS bottles. Broken glass & bare feet do not go together. This is a LITTER FREE FESTIVAL: Please help contain the trash. Recycle all aluminum. Take out what you bring in. Use the recycling bins located throughout the festival grounds. Vehicles: Only vehicles belonging to campers are allowed in the camping area. No unauthorized vehicles allowed in the festival stage area. Canned Music: Picking and singing is encouraged, as it adds to the festiveness of the event. Do not play any recorded music on stereos or car systems. Campfires: Must be properly barricaded and contained. Share a fire with your camping neighbor whenever possible, so we don't have fires everywhere. Quiet in the Camping Area: In order for everyone to have a great time, please keep the non-music related noise down in the camping area after the stage closes down. Unauthorized Vending & Distributing Literature: You may not sell anything on the festival grounds unless you have a permit. Ask to pass out literature at the festival and campground. Generators: Please respect sleeping neighbors and shut down generators at a reasonable hour. Weapons: Anyone seen with any type of weapon will be escorted from the grounds, without refund. No illegal substances: No exceptions ~ you will be asked to leave the festival, without refund.

Being Prepared at the Festival Smoked Country Jam will be a blast for everyone who attends. And, it can be even more of a blast if you come prepared. Here are a few helpful suggestions to allow the first-time festival goers to have the most enjoyable experience possible.
Hotels, Motels, B&Bs:
Make
reservations where you will be staying. There is a lot
going on in the area during the summer, so it would be wise to
call several months in advance to book your room. There
is a list of all the lodging in the area on our web site.
Camping & Campground Access: The festival offers primitive camping, on a first come, first serve basis. There is a one time campground fee of $5 fee for each adult ticket. Kids under 16 camp for free. All those wanting to go to the campground must pay the $5 fee. What to Bring to the Festival If you have a tent or trailer, you've probably camped before, so there is no reason to tell you what you should bring. But be prepared for any kind of weather: wet, dry, sunny, cloudy, hot, or cold. The festival goes on, rain or shine. Here are some things that you don't want to forget:
