Fall River Propane Swift Idol began in 2016 as a small community competition. The first event was held on Main Street in Afton, Wyoming. The event was won by Melissa Dickey of Blackfoot, ID who received a $500 price. In 2017, the competition moved to the Lincoln County Fair where it was held as part of the free entertainment. The price increased to $1,000 and was won by Case Tippetts of Afton, Wyoming. The event continued to grow to a $3,000 prize in year three, which was won by EJ Pauni of Cokeville, Wyoming. Last year’s 2019 competition took a big step forward, becoming one of the featured events of the Lincoln County Fair. It was held on a professional concert stage and carried a grand prize of $6,000. The 2019 event was won by Josh Jardine of Grover, Wyoming. Jardine has since released his debut album, Gotta Start Livin’, which is available on Amazon Music, iTunes or SVIstore.com.
