High energy of all ages rocked the alley way turned block party next to the HighLead Saloon, Smokehouse and Casino last Friday in Thompson Falls. It was an atmosphere of kids having fun with hula hoops, bubbles, chalk and corn hole games, music from Rad Fondue, a beer garden for adults to enjoy and the aroma of smoked food filling the air.

Members of the band Rad Fondue, Larry Laws, Gene Repp, Pat Coast and Doug Lee got the audience up and dancing to songs like "Amie" and "Moondance." They said it was their debut because it's been a while since they've played together. Also featured on stage was singer songwriter Tanner Laws.

HighLead's Cody Mosher, who put the event on, said that it was all about people having fun. "It's been such a long time since we've done this," said Mosher. He said that he'd love to correlate the event with a car show at the bank parking lot and with the Saturday Market that will be next to Blue Hawk Pizza. "I want to get people that are downtown to enjoy downtown and then go home," he said.

Along with John and Barb Mosher, a couple of craft vendors, locals, and visitors alike joining in on the festivities, the event was a blow-out success.
