2007 FESTIVAL SETS RECORD ATTENDANCE AND RECORD GIFT TO MEDICAL CENTER

The 2007 High Mountain Hay Fever Bluegrass Festival was our most successful ever. 3,427 folks attended over the four days. The performances were inspiring, the audience enthusiastic, and the weather cooperated throughout. Best of all, we did so well that we were able to generate more than $47,000 for the Custer County Medical Center in Westcliffe. This compares to $27,000 from the first four years in their entirety. We are very proud of this accomplishment and we are grateful to all the volunteers, sponsors and attendees who made it possible.

We look forward to seeing you here in 2008!

OUR SPECTACULAR FESTIVAL SITE

The festival site is at the west end of Main Street in Westcliffe, on a bluff directly overlooking the spectacular Wet Mountain Valley and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains (see photos above). We think you won't find a more inspiring site for a festival.
