Uncertain Future for Two Michigan Festivals

Image634927515018520726Due to the untimely passing of James (Jim) Wilder, The Wilder family  will not proceed with the Bluegrass festivals as they did in the past.

This year the Milan festival will go on the date as planned, however it will be the sole responsibility of Mark Gaynier, the campground owner and personal family friend.

At this time the family has not solidified any plans for the June Charlotte festival. 

They are actively trying to find a promoter that will step up and take over this historic 40-year-long-running festival.   Unfortunately the family is asking  that friends and fans take The Charlotte festival out of summer plans, but they suggest checking the website often for any changes.

If you or someone you know have an interest in securing the rights for this festival please contact wilderberry53@gmail.com.

The Milan Bluegrass Festival will be August 8-10 at KC Campground, Milan, Michigan. More information will be available on the Campground Site.
