WEDNESDAY, JUNE 18th in Downtown Le Mars live music from 5-7 PM Ice Cream Days Festival Tri-State Cruisers

Join us for a rockin’ good time during the Tri-State Cruisers Car Show at Ice Cream Days with a live performance by The Jammers, a 6-piece band from Le Mars & Sioux City, playing the best mix of '50s & '60s music with a bit of '70s. They were 2018 inductees into the Midwest All Music Association Hall of Fame.

This talented group will bring the energy with classic hits and crowd favorites, making it the perfect soundtrack as you stroll through rows of vintage cars and custom rides. Bring a lawn chair, tap your toes, and enjoy an evening of great music, cool cars, and community fun!
