To My Faster Horses Family

Is it July yet!?

76
To My Faster Horses Family
Courtney Banks

Faster Horses, one the best music festivals in the nation takes place in Brooklyn, MI. For one weekend Michigan International Speedway is turned into every country music lover's dream. A weekend full of country music, friends, and fun is exactly what you will find during the Faster Horses festival.

Winter is upon us and if you're like me the Faster Horses withdrawal is hitting hard. Every day I catch myself talking about the weekend of my life, the Party of the Summer. I'm constantly showing my friends pictures convincing them to come with me next year. Nothing beats soaking up the hot July sun with your best drinking buddies right by your side.

The friends you meet at Faster Horses will stay in your heart and hopefully camera roll forever. Who would have thought that a five-minute bus ride could lead to a fresh beer and blurry selfie with a complete stranger? Faster Horses is the best place to meet new drunk happy friends, I have even met a few of my own.


The party is always going at FH. From redneck slip and slides, to Faster Humans, and endless games of beer pong, there is always something to do. I can't say that before Faster Horses I played a game of rage cage at 10 a.m., but I'll tell you I don't regret it a bit. The nightlife is even better. No one is ready for the party to stop after the concerts, so you stumble back to your campsite just looking for more. A bon fire with your friends or a flashlight lit game of flip cup, the party never stops.

The music at Faster Horses is obviously a highlight too. Hearing your idols belt out the words of your favorite songs as you slur the words along with them is quite the experience. Swaying to the music with your drink in the air makes every worry go away in a flash. The headliners are always my favorite but don't forget to hit up the Next From Nashville tent, there's some gems in there too.


In the end Faster Horses can only be understood if you've spent your weekend at MIS with thousands of strangers at the Party of the Summer. The insane amounts of money spent on alcohol and the three day hangover are worth every second of your time there. The memories made in one weekend will last a lifetime. July can't come quick enough.

I can't wait to see you all boozed up in Brooklyn.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
