"Waterfest"
is a celebration of the quality of life enjoyed in the Fox Valley Area
and the name was chosen to draw attention to our most valuable, unique
and recognizable resource, our waterways. The "Leach Ampitheater", where this event is held, is located at the mouth of the historic Fox River
in downtown Oshkosh, and is home to the weekly "Waterfest Concerts" held each
Thursday evening Memorial Day through Labor Day on the shores of the historic Fox River in
Downtown Oshkosh. The City of Oshkosh is nestled between and on Lakes
Butte des Morts and Winnebago. The recreational assets of these bodies of water provide great value and
sense of pride to area residents, businesses and visitors. Opened
in May 2005, the Leach Amphitheater can accommodate up to 7,500
visitors. And on August 30th, was host to 4 bands including REO
Speedwagon. Formed in 1967, the band cultivated a following during the 1970s and over the course of its career, the band has sold more than 40 million
records and has charted thirteen Top 40 Hits, including the number ones "Keep On Loving You" and "Can't Fight This Feeling".
