FESTIVAL WEEK IS HERE!

Festival week is finally here and the efforts of many many people will come to fruition.  We have a great line up of bands, and numerous activities for children.  The festival is an event the whole family can truly enjoy.

In this issue we would like to spotlight our many sponsors, without whose help the festival would not be possible.  We would particularly like to thank our major financial donors:

  • Exchange Bank
  • Oklahoma Arts Council/National Endowment for the Arts
  • Osage Nation Million Dollar Elm Casino
  • Grand River Dam Authority
  • Mark Russell

In addition, dozens of Skiatook area businesses and individuals have provided financial support as well.

We have many in-kind sponsors  who have donated goods and services vital to staging the festival.  And, of course, we have many volunteers (who sponsor us by donating their time)  who sit on the board, hold staff positions, and do the numerous miscellaneous things required to keep the festival going.

To all of our sponsors we wish to express our gratitude and give a resounding heartfelt thank you.

VENDORS STILL WANTED

There is still time to get a booth to exhibit at our festival.  Please tell any and all artists and crafters  that you know.  We welcome them to set up a booth. A rich variety of vendors can add a lot to people's enjoyment of the festival.  Details are on the "Vendors" page at our website.  Or have them contact Gay (918-724-3443, vendors@skiatookbluegrass.com).

We would specifically like to find a vendor to sell ice cream, shaved ice, or some other dessert at the festival.  Contact Gay (918-724-3443, vendors@skiatookbluegrass.com).
