GenFest 2007GenFest is bursting at the seems this year and you won't want to miss it.
I'm forwarding Rhonda's update to her own email list - see below. In addition,
plans are already in the works for GenFest 2008 in New Castle, Henry County. These
GenFest hosts are giving me a run for my money and making GenFest 2005 look like small
potatoes. (I'll have to do something about that!) In the meantime, I'm looking
forward to seeing all of you at GenFest 2007 in Marion, June 8th and 9th.
Please forward this to anyone else you think may be interested!

From Rhonda Stoffer:
"Its time for another update! June is just around the corner, and plans for GenFest
are progressing quickly. Please take a look at the GenFest website at:
http://www.marion.lib.in.us/genfest/genfest07.htm. The schedule has been finalized and is
posted on the web site. We currently have people from 14 states registered to attend, and
over 30 vendors and organizations slated to appear in the marketplace. We have received
several very nice door prizes, so be sure to check those out. If you are planning to stay
overnight in Marion, don't forget the Hotel Marion has offered a conference rate of
$45 per night, and is just a few blocks from the library. If you would like to ride one of
the shuttle buses to the IOOF or Grant Memorial Park cemeteries, please let me know if you
haven't already. Looking forward to seeing you all in June.
