SUMMER CONCERT SERIES
The High Rock Lake Association with the help of some great sponsors present a series of concerts that can be enjoyed on the lake.
Float the Goat
"Goat Island" is a popular hand out spot on High Rock Lake. In 2019 lake resident Mikey Wetzel had the idea of having a band perform on a floating stage. The event continues to grow year after year.
Almost any summer weekend you'll find a crown gathering at "The Goat."
​
"Goat Island" is located here
The next concert after "Float the Goat" will be at "The Point" on August 24th and feature the "Dickens Band."
The concerts will be held from a private dock on Crane Creek between Goat Island and Water's Edge Restaurant. See the map to the right for the location. There is no land access.
"The Point" Venue
High Rock Lake Clean Sweep
"High Rock Lake Clean Sweep" is an annual event where volunteers gather at several locations to go out and collect litter from shoreline around High Rock Lake. After a few years of difficulties presented by the pandemic, the 2022 High Rock Clean Sweep bounced back and was quite successful. Volunteers in Davidson County and in Rowan County managed to get between four and five tons of trash out of the lake. If you have a boat, please bring it. If you don't come on out anyway and jump on board with someone and lend a hand picking up litter around the lake. Check out the website https://www.hrlcleansweep.org/
Hot Weather Crappie Fishing

Finding the right bait, the proper rigs and even finding the fish are critical for success. In the video below you'll learn some tips to help you catch more fish even in the hottest months of the summer.
