offer $1,200 in prizes.
Music will start at 9
a.m. each morning, and run
through the night, he said.

always been an integral
part of the festival, and all
musicans are encouraged to
bring their instruments and
join in the sessions.

expanded park facilities to
handle the expected record
crowd this summer. He
said correspondence indi-
