Nestled in a beautifully wooded area, Winolequa Park is conveniently located close to
Interstate 5. Less than 2 hours drive south of Seattle and an hour north of Portland,
this gem of a Pickersfest is attended by many great pickers from all over the Pacific
Northwest. This fantastic festival is put on by an all-volunteer staff, so the price
of admission is remarkably inexpensive.
Food is prepared and catered by the Winlock Park Board who collect the proceeds for this service and is available from noon on Friday through Sunday breakfast.

The Winlock Pickersfest is a labor of love created by a dedicated group of volunteers from the
Washington Acoustic Music Association (WAMA). We hope you'll check this site often.
