Anonapalooza 2010

After a successful inaugural event, "Anonapalooza" is back by popular demand for an expanded 2nd year. Plan on bringing your family and friends to spend Saturday and Sunday, July 31st and August 1st at Good Templar Park enjoying music, art, games, and most of all fellowship. This year's event offers the chance, as last year did, to build lasting memories with those you love...or want to!

Anonapalooza 2010 will have 4 different musical stages, and our interactive DRUM CIRCLE EXPERIENCE to enjoy. There will be something for everyone. The MAIN STAGE will offer music from a variety of acts that will perform classic rock, blues and folk music. The WAKING THE DEAD STAGE will present cutting edge bands with a more energetic and edgier sound. Our ACOUSTIC STAGE will be redesigned and relocated to highlight talented stringed instruments and awesome vocals. The PIRATE STAGE returns with its’ OPEN MIC, "sign up and play format"; where a sound system and drums will be provided. The INTERACTIVE DRUM CIRCLE will periodically offer families and friends an opportunity to get in the groove and play a multitude of percussion instruments. For further fun, there will be other opportunities under our ACTIVITIES AND ENTERTAINMENT TENT , TOM BOZ MAGICIAN perform acts of magic before your eyes. We will again offer an opportunity to have kids experience MY FIRST GUITAR LESSON Anonapalooza is proud to also present displays of art by the BATAVIA ARTISTS ASSOCIATION, along with demonstrations by artists. Aspiring younger artists will also have the chance to paint color and draw in our youth GAME AND ART CAMP ! We will also provide games, face painting and other awesome activities.
To maintain your energy and strength, please visit our CONCESSION STAND for delicious, affordable edibles and beverages.
Lastly, take the time to play one of our many games. A picnic is nothing without games. So, try playing GOLF...beat the pro, softball, volleyball, corn hole bags and so much more! Come back to our site as we announce the schedule of events and the bands committed to playing. Please take this chance to build your memories, and a future for those afflicted by addiction. The primary benefactor for this year is again Serenity House in Addison, a counseling, treatment and living facility for the treatment of those affected. Their services help to rebuild lives and families who struggle with addiction. The secondary benefactor is Good Templar Park, a place of beauty, fun, sober living and fellowship.

Help with Anonapalooza

I am writing you to tell you about a family-friendly, alcohol-free event called Anonapalooza, July 31st-August 1st in Geneva at Good Templar Park......a benefit for Serenity House in Addison, a residential Half-Way House for Men and Woman. Serenity House provides stability, discipline, and basic recovery tools for those suffering from addictions to alcohol and drugs in those ever important early days of sobriety. Last year with limited publicity we had over 800 people attend the first Anonapalooza. This year we are expecting our old friends, and a lot of new friends. One of our new friends, Jenny Casale from the daily herald wrote about us recently. Here is her story link: http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=393465

Our web site: www.anonapalooza.com will provide you with a list of the 25 bands daily at four stages, activities for all including inflatable bouncy house, an obstacle course, balloon toss, face-painting, first guitar lessons interactive drum circle experience, hands on t-shirt tye dying, softball games, bag toss, volleyball, and more. We also will have, Pal Joey’s of West Chicago selling food and drinks, unlimited free parking and a LOW admission price of just $5.00 per person-------supporting a great cause. Visit our facebook page to link to over 100 photos of our last year’s Pirate Ship open mic stage, Main stage, youth Waking the Dead stage, acoustic stage, parking, volunteers, happy faces and families enjoying the first festival.

We begin site preparations next Saturday July 24th at Good Templar park at 10am, volunteers are needed and appreciated. We are looking for people to help clean facilities, make signs and build stages along with prepare the grounds for a blast off a weekend!

If you should have any questions please feel free to call me at 630 621-8512. I would be happy to help you learn more, and hope that you would forward this information to those responsible for articles and notices in your publication.

Thank you for your interest in ANONAPALOOZA 2010!!

An Anonymous Jalopy said...: We did it! Anona Palooza Summerfest 2009... What a time it was.... So many amazing contributors... wow. We are flabbergasted at the amount of people who are willing to give so much to the cause. I personally am more aware then ever the worth of a good friend... or is it community? No... family is the word. The worth of a good family. Brothers and sisters, God has been very good to us and this is only the beginning! We will and we must continue to expand our horizons. Monthly coffeehouse/open mikes are going to turn into weekly events... venues, battle of the bands, acoustic night, karaoke, and we must never lose sight of the root of it all... the open mike... a forum where we have already seen great freedom of expression and it must never be squelched. We will take this to other towns, other events and other people groups. We must carry the message and in my soul i know that clean and sober fun is not only good for everyone, it is VITAL. We must not be constantly sitting in our homes alone, stewing about the depressing economy, our neurotic selves and the broken people/relationships that are all around us. Not that we shouldn't give consideration to these things, we must. And we certainly must do those things that empower us to live... the meetings, the service work, the programs, the steps, and especially getting on our knees in reverent prayer and confession. But without times of celebration, we are not fully living. Our Father intended that we would stand up against the lies and isolation to proclaim that life is good and is meant to be filled with abundant joy! We are already so excited about next year... Summerfest 2010 promises to be totally amazing. So anyway, what's your thoughts? Let's talk about it. We would love to hear your feedback and more than that, we need it. In his Service... Lee
