A full house of friendly environmental faces awaits at this weekends festival. The displays were arranged primarily to keep the wildlife folks under the shade and worth a dam in all four corners. i think it’s come together fairly well, and have actually come to love how the little park suddenly becomes a crowded market place like something out of the 16th century or a Martinez Renaissance Faire. Music will be played in the center square, (where the notes are) and the procession will walk from east to west to hang the banner over the footbridge. Not sure where the Morris dancers will decide to perform but follow the sound of bells to keep track of them.
We had a great write-up from Bay City News yesterday, and NBC picked it up. A few people told me they heard us announced on KGO and KFOG and I’m very happy about that. In my whimsical moments I imagine that no one will bother coming and I’ll be left sitting alone for 5 hours staring at a pleistocene era beaver skull. But maybe Worth a dam members will occupy ourselves with a massive puppet show with all the donations from Folkmanis for the silent auction. I’m thinking an “Off Broadway production of the town that found a way” or maybe something with an evil lawyer tying beavers to the railroad tracks and a manly hero from Vermont saving them. Now that would be fun.
