Fire it up: Gord Bamford concert supporting Broncos Athletics on October 25

Gord Bamford is going to be bringing a little “Heaven on Dirt” to the Future Ag Events Centre on the Olds Regional Exhibition grounds later this month.

Bamford is celebrating 25 years of his career in country music and he will be helping to support Olds College Broncos Athletics and student-athlete scholarships. He says “our daughter goes to college there and we’ve been doing these small towns – we’re actually going to be in Saskatoon the night before that a their Ag Bag. A lot of these small towns, they are all fundraisers for communities and groups and stuff. So this is a perfect fit. It is a great college to be a part of, there are a lot of great athletes and students there. I guess with Paisley being there, it helps but we’re just going to have some fun and raise some dollars for the Broncos and it should be a great night.”

The Broncos Bash with Bamford is an all ages family friendly event which will include an Olds College Rodeo watch party, a concert with Gord Bamford, and D.J. entertainment to follow. It is set for Saturday, October 25th and tickets are available online at gobroncos.ca.
