I would like to extend a great big thanks to the members of the community of Seldovia for their support in last weekend's second annual Music Fest. It was a tremendous success, larger and more fun than ever. Thanks to the talented performers from all over Alaska and the United States who shared their music with us. We loved each and every performance. Thanks to Rainbow Tours, Jakolof Bay Ferry, all the businesses and families who provided housing and food for our visiting artists.

Thanks especially to Mary Webber, Savannah Lewis, Darlene Crawford, Jeff Madson, Mary and Tom Glover, Susan Zerwick, Lynn Corwin and Missy McMillan, who took on festival board positions, making the backbone of the festival strong. Thanks especially to Tim O'Leary who came to our aid with the sound equipment. All of the parts of the festival went smoothly thanks to all of you. It was a fantastic fest!
