The sentiments are all the same or are based upon pure economics.
There’s a big dukes gig in June, on the 8th I believe.
The responses from most Dukes fans is, like to go, but can’t afford to.
This is why the Knytes are still busting hump to stage DukesFest West/Hazzard Nationals here in Idaho.
Less admission fees, more to offer, and a Charity to give the money to.
The thing is, although only slightly better, even our Canadian brothers and sisters, just do not have the money to get
all the kids together, load em in the SUV or Minivan, travel 3 or 4 days, having to do motels, eats and all.
Many people are just holding on. Added to that a lower farm income this year due to delays in getting in the fields, due to weather,
the fact is the pockets are a bit shallow.
So what to do?
Travel west, where lodging, food, and all is less and for those west of the Mississippi , easier to get to.
Its not to cause any bitterness towards Ben or Alma or any of that, infact part of what we make we will send to them, but the fact is,
For those of us in the Mountain West , going to Nashville is a big expense, coming to Twin Falls Idaho isn’t.
So if you can’t trek east to Nashville in June, this year, plan on coming west here to Twin Falls next year, for:
DukesFest West/Hazzard Nationals.
Watch here for further details and the even web addy.
Oh and the charity? Whom else? The River Fellowship.
