FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
GROOVEFEST AMERICAN MUSIC FESTIVAL
TO HOLD FIRST RUMMAGE & BAKE SALE
FOR THE 2013 SEASON
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2012
ST. JUDES EPISCOPAL CHURCH
9:00AM – 3:00PM

The Groovefest American Music Festival has not only become a much anticipated yearly annual event, but now so have the rummage sales connected with it.
The Groovefest Rummage Sale began in 2010 as part of the effort of raising much-needed funds that would go directly to paying the artistry who perform at the annual Cedar City event.
The rummage sale’s success has been so overwhelming that organizers decided to continue the sale as an annual event. The Groovefest rummage sales hold a second fund-raiser in spring each year. The addition of delicious baked goods makes the annual sale twice as fun!
Besides business and individual sponsorships, this annual event allows residents to feel like they are directly involved with the success of each and every Groovefest.
The 11th annual Groovefest will be held next year from June 24th through June 30th in historic downtown Cedar City , Utah . A children’s version of the festival is being planned in addition to the new LitFest – new to event during last year’s 10th Anniversary show.
The 2013 Groovefest will once again be joined by the Cedar City Arts Festival and be presented together on June 28th and 29th. This two-day segment of the seven-day festival will provide great music and visual arts in the beautiful Cedar City Main Street Park for everyone to enjoy!
Proceeds from the rummage and bake sales will not only supplement the many costs that are required to put on a festival such as Groovefest, but it will create awareness for the annual music and art event. In addition, there will be a massage chair set up for those wishing to relieve some aches and pains with a massage!
This year’s 11th Groovefest American Music Festival will prove to be the best Groovefest yet with its multiple activities and those events that have made the Groovefest American Music Festival what it has already been highly acclaimed for.

The 1st Groovefest Rummage and Bake Sale will be held on December 8th at St. Jude’s Episcopal Church at 70 N. 200 W. in Cedar City, from 9:00AM until 3:00PM.

This is the perfect opportunity to check out some bargains for your Christmas shopping as well as support a great event. Anyone who would like to donate to the cause of making sure that the next Groovefest is a success can drop off good sellable items to Groovacious at 173 N. 100 W.
