The Countdown Is ON!

7 days left.  The fireflies are synchronizing right now.  We've been going out into the camp and on the bridge this weekend.  We've witnessed synchronous displays, Chinese Lanterns and Fast Fives in all locations.

The word is spreading quickly, and we've had some nice articles and radio interviews creating a real buzz.  We can't wait to see what all this does for the festival.  We've had a couple more food vendors and arts & crafters join the ranks as well.
