Ushers Ferry is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year during the Cedar Rapids Freedom Festival on Saturday, July 1, from 1-5 p.m. Many of our old friends will be at the party including Hawk A Model A Club, Iowa Brass Band, Hole in the Sock Gang, and Red Cedar Regulators. Join us as we share our favorite memories and create some new ones with Old West performances, music, games, a bounce house, historic crafts and skill demonstrations, a pie auction, and more!
