Big thanks!

Now on the other side of the other side of the festival, wrapping up we're already making plans for next year..

Before we get to far ahead of ourselves we wanted to send out a huge thanks to all of our volunteers, the wonderful Round House staff, Suzette Amaya of SAMYA Entertainment, Think NDN Radio, all of the folks down there at CFRO, Urban Ink, W2, Starbucks, Fratelli Bakery, Terra Breads, Beverly Seed and everyone over at Britannia and you for your ongoing support and patronage!

In addition, a big thanks to our wonderful bar sponsors for all their help and consideration in assisting us in putting together quite a high end reception with a very well received product!
