The festival, which would be locally organized, will be run on the lines of the highly success- ful Mariposa Festival. As yet plans are still in a very premature state. It will probably be held, however, sometime in July of next year. Biggest problem facing the organizers is the finding of a suitable site capable of holding a large crowd, At the minute several local farms which sur- round the town are being inves- tigated. The date would have to be carefully chosen so as not to conflict with the Mariposa. Star entertainment would be featured on both nights of the Festival, Many Canadian artists would appear with a little over- the-border-spice added for good measure.
