Discussion- Winthrop Rhythm & Blues Festival
William Stoleberg and Mark Segrum reported on the attendance and finances for the 2010 Rhythm & Blues Festival. Attendance was under 2500 persons. This is the first and longest running festival in Washington State. Dave Hilton reported that the inspectors had some concerns regarding potable water. William stated that 3 out of the 6 years that they have been using OK Cascade they have come without proper certifications. There is nothing he can do about that other than to put pressure on them and remove all of the other equipment that was not certified. Dave Hilton suggested that the festival officials get the information up front and if they have concerns contact the Health District.
