For those of you that are attending Wakarusa, check out Ft Smith's own Copesetic. My son, Hunter Smith (AKA RBF Flunkie) plays lead guitar. :clap: They are playing sometime Saturday on the main stage so give the local kids a lot of support. :beer:
Thanks,
Hal

We now have 28 people committed for the full four days and 8 more folks who can be there for at least two days. If we can get 40 committed to be there for the entire four days, we'll get another beer tent and go for twice as much tip money raised for the ACC. Just need 12 more folks to be there... spread the word and let's get 40 so we can double our money! If we could put an extra $4000 to $5000 in the ACC's fund this year to do work on conservation, instruction, access, gauges, etc... our little group of beer vendors will set some kind of record in the history of ACC fundraising I bet!

Got a response on under 21 volunteers. Bad news. No one under 21 can work in the tent. ID's will get checked to make sure you're old enough to work under AR liquor laws. I'd love to include folks under 21 - if anyone has any ideas about other tasks that we could propose they do, let me know and I'll see if it flies with the Wakarusa folks.

What's the skinny on campsites? On the festival grounds or close by? Feasible to stay a little further out and drive in daily?

The prodigal is gracing my household with his presence and we might be able to catch a couple of shifts. I'm flexible - count him out for the Crowes or Mofro.

I'll send you a PM Fish when I can commit.

I'm already signed up to volunteer, but have at least five more friends that are interested. How many more people do you need and can I send you their info? Thanks!

We can still use quite a few more folks at this point. We will have two tents now I think for sure. Double our money.
