Looking Great For 2010!!!

There are so many components, that go into Festival, I will try to separate issues and groups within the Festival. We are expecting the largest amount of attendees for an independent convention ever.
"Thank you," to all those that have volunteered. YOU are the folks that will make "Festival" possible. Association lines are erased with this convention. That was our goal and we have reached it!
