The Hiawatha Maple Leaf Festival is set for Sept. 23 and organizers with the Hiawatha Chamber and Visitors Bureau are excited about this year’s line-up of activities. Maple Leaf will be bringing in some fantastic music — as the Chamber is featuring Maria the Mexican of the Kansas City area as the headlining band, scheduled for an 11:45 p.m. performance on the north side of the courthouse steps. Also new this year is the Brent Isom Trio of St. Joseph, Mo., who will play at 10:45 a.m. Favorites back for solo performances in the afternoon include Stephanie Gummelt at 12:45 p.m., Nirvana Petersen at 2:15 p.m. and Tori Wist at 3 p.m. Find all of them on the north steps of the Brown County Courthouse.
