Does the festival go on rain or shine?

We are located in St. Louis, so if you aren't from here let me tell you!!! We have no idea 5 minutes from now what the weather will be like.  A light rain will not scare us away, but a lightening storm and/or down-pours and high winds might put a damper on things.  We plan on a great festival every year and so far mother nature has been on our side!

What are the festival proceeds used for?

We are a charity organization that holds this event to raise funds to help the people in our community. Particularly the elderly and disabled residents who need help with small home repairs that they cannot do themselves.  We also raise additional funds throughout the year to award local students who show volunteerism within the community by sending them to special learning camps. In April 2011, we sent students to classes and camps such as film directing school at Mizzou, an equestrian camp and a veteranarian school.  To learn more about our programs and neighborhood outreach, see the "About Us" page on this website.
