Keep the music alive

Dear friends, 

Music at Snipes Farm was all set for a stellar season - our biggest ever.
We had four new shows planned including a new two-day festival (Harvest Moon ). Our new Solar Barn venue was going to add a tremendous
new dimension to our shows.

CoVid 19 has wreaked havoc on us. We have canceled four shows so
far and postponing others.  We hope to have the Hemp Festival
and In and Out of the Garden We Go in September and a new show,
SolSplash, in November.  But it is far from a certainty.  We may have to
skip the whole season.

We are struggling.  Planning and maintaining the Music at Snipes Farm schedule is a year-round project. It takes a tremendous amount of work and money to pull it off.  I am fearful that we could lose everything.  I
also work as a substitute teacher, a tutor, and a workshop leader.  I have no income right now and I lots of bills to pay.  Money has already been
spent on promotion, booking, maintenance, and site preparations. 
Whether we have shows or not this year, it's going to cost time and money.   

Help us keep the music alive.  We appreciate the community that we
have co-created. A unique venue without the corporate hustle that
plagues much of the festival scene -  family-friendly venue.  I always tell people that we want a place where you can bring your six-year-old and let them run free without worry.

All of us - all of you - are what makes this possible.  Please help us keep
things going. We need some support to do that. The money will be used to keep us running:  pay the rent and utilities, and for staffing and maintenance. 

We are offering some premiums to sweeten the deal.

Donations of $20 or more you will get a Music at Snipes Farm sticker.

We are also adding a VIP area near the stage.  This will be for meeting
bands and for relaxing.    VIP members will get a special pass.  

$100 or more, you will get VIP privileges for two years. (festival
admission will be extra)

A season pass will include admission to every show we do in a season.

$500 you will get a season pass for two years (includes VIP
privileges) 
$1000 you get a season pass for five years (includes VIP
privileges).   

Thank you all for everything you do to create the coolest friendliest
concert and festival venue around.
