FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
October 5, 2006

For over a decade, the third weekend of September has been host to a much anticipated event for a slowly (but steadily) growing contingent of music and art lovers in our region. The destination? Terrapin Hill Farm. The revered event is now called the Harvest Festival. In the early days, it not only marked the season’s crop harvest on Pete and Brenda Cashel’s 325-acre, family-run organic farm…it also marked their invitation for friends to camp and see the foliage turn glorious, vibrant colors on the beautifully maintained, pastoral land. Then at night, everyone was invited to watch a band play in the barn, have some hot cider, dance, eat, and have a good time.

Over the years, this gathering has ‘organically’ developed into what you see today – a nationally-recognized, industry-respected music, art, and education festival that encompasses dozens of styles of musical and artistic expression. Its usual attendance has grown from tens to thousands, and its fans are loyal – so loyal that, even upon prediction of rain, these weather-equipped campers came to Terrapin, intent on having a wonderful time with their friends and family.

Unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans. The 2006 festival season yielded one of the worst torrential downpours that the Midwest has experienced in 30 years. As a result, the Chaplin River, which is on Terrapin Hill Farm, flooded its banks, submerging cars, sweeping away tents, and separating hundreds of festival goers from their property. Since the storm was predicted to continue for days, an emergency situation was declared, and Harrodsburg police, fire, emergency personnel, and the Red Cross arrived with boats and buses to evacuate everyone to the local community center. There were no injuries reported, but as the weather and river subsided, it was obvious that a considerable amount of damage had been done to the farm.

These musicians have come together to help provide a fund for relief of the damage caused in this disaster. This benefit will feature music and a silent auction of donated merchandise.

Featured entertainment will be appearances from:

David Gans
Paradigm
Stonewheel
Bloom Street
The Merry Pranksters
Dallas Alice
the 1point3’s
Slackshop
Sativa Gumbo
…and more TBA

Rain or Shine. All ages welcome. No pets, please.
