Don’t know if it’s still the case, but there was a time when a lot of complementary tix to the beach party were distributed at the DHA properties downtown. Otherwise the gate fee is going to be out of reach for most of those families.

Every festival, event or fundraiser has to find its own way to survive. But if you happen to be a fan of those that are free to all we have a couple of great ones which could use your support. Forefront for me is the Decatur Book Festival ( 41 days away. yikes!) Lots of great volunteer opportunities, for individuals, families, or groups. Every part of the spectrum of volunteering is available, from managerial to “tote that barge, lift that bale.”
To volunteer, and in so doing contribute to the continuation of this event, email Sherry.Jackman@decaturga.com.

I’m sure that should you want, JT, you could join the committee that plans the festival. I’m also positive that the organizers will accept any major corporate sponsors with whom you can connect them. That festival raises money to give to lots of groups all over Decatur. It costs money to get all those bands, the stage, the security, the insurance, along with quite a number of other things. The City charges fees for sanitation specifically to the organizers. Please, please, JT, find the money for the festival costs, or just for the grants from the profits.
