The Fremont Community Foundation was proud to join forces in 2009 with "Discover Downtown Canon City" merchants (and other sponsors and donors!) to put on the "Flashback on Main Street" public sock-hop dance on a fabulous Friday night.  It was a huge hit, followed by an even larger event the next year.  It has continued to grow ever since and the residents look forward to the event every year.

 

The event is free to the public, and there is always a fantastic crowd all night, great classic cars on Main Street (between Fifth and Seventh Streets) and terrific classic rock'n'roll.  We appreciate all the support we receive from our Downtown Merchants and our extraordinary volunteers!  Please give a big thanks to all of our downtown merchants who participate!

 

The 2013 FlashBack on Main Street will be held on May 17, 2013 and again will featur that great oldies band Flash Cadillac as well as the local favorite band, The Highside Command.  We look forward to another great time!
