The Coot Williams Road site in Cherryville, NC, owned and operated by Linda and John Hunsucker under the name of The Catawba Valley Music Revival, a non-profit corporation devoted to “promoting and preserving live music in the unifour and surrounding areas of North and South Carolina.” In support of this goal the organization offers two festivals a year and hopes to support youth programs on its own property and in the area’s schools. While not offering any hookups, the site has plenty of room for rough camping. The natural bowl holds a large tent, while a food shed and flush toilets and showers are available. Vendors are well situated to serve attendees. The Hunsuckers have been holding festivals on this site for several years, and have become increasingly adept at presenting events in a customer friendly fashion.
Darin & Brooke, have, over the past two years, had a remarkable rise as their fine harmonies and Brooke's exceptional lead singing have found a place in the hearts of fans across their increasingly wide ranging travels.  - Ted Lehmann
