The launch of the Oakhurst Porchfest was just four days ago and already it’s looking like we may have a hit on our hands.

“It’s been crazy,” said porchfester-in-chief Scott Doyon. “Our only wish going into this was to somehow get the neighborhood — both long-timers and newcomers — out and about, getting to know one another, and just having a fun afternoon of music. But the response has been so great, who knows what this will turn into?”

The current tally of sign-ups? As of this writing, we already have 35 porches on board. And from them, we’re seeing the emergence of potential hot-spots within the neighborhood — areas where a concentration of participating neighbors is sure to make for a lively scene. Check this map of how it’s all currently shaking out:

Now consider this exercise in simple math: If each current porch host encouraged just two additional neighbors on their street to sign up, we’d surpass a hundred stages our first year.

Crazy.

Speaking of, we’ve also had 24 musical acts sign up. So let it be known: Musicians, if you want to play, we’ve got stages to play on. “Y’all come.”, as they say.
