– 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! And this
year attendees to the sale will also be able take advantage of massages offered
by Miranda Greene Bryant!
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.
