Forget about the vibe; vibes come and go. The effects of the brown acid have finally worn off. Peace and love? A noble, albeit archaic, concept. They even managed to get traffic moving on the New York State Thruway again— though just barely. Yet for all the event’s remnants eroded by time, Woodstock remains the cynosure of a generation with a conflicted identity. A great many hippies morphed into a species that swapped their bellbot- toms for a Prada suit, their VW vans for a BMW SUV, and spare change for a 401(k). Others craving more civil liberties became libertarians, while those prophesying free love wound up prostrate, in divorce court. Who of us vow- ing to share the land ever suspected we’d land a jumbo mortgage? Or vote for a guy who pledged to end welfare (well, maybe not him)? In any case, a lot of screwy stuff has come down the pike. Boomers persist in embracing Woodstock as a warm, fuzzy keepsake; a special moment from their past that continues to burn in their loins like a first love. There is ample justification for it. Woodstock sets them apart from earlier generations that followed a narrow, buttoned- down script for their lives.

  • BOLD CHOICES “May Your Choices Reflect Your Hopes and Not Your Fears.” - Nelson Mandela
    IFEA PRESIDENT’S LETTER BY STEVEN WOOD SCHMADER, CFEE BOLD CHOICES “May your choices reflect your hopes and not your fears.” - Nelson Mandela ’d like to start this article by remembering our friends and professional colleagues with the Gilroy Garlic Festival. Execu- tive Director of the festival, Brian Bowe, sent his appreciation to all of us in the IFEA family for our thoughts and support in Ithe wake of the tragic mass shooting at his event on July 28th. And while it has only been 3 1/2 months since that horrible occurrence, the number of additional shootings and tragedies, at other soft-target venues and locations, since that time, can make it feel like an eternity has passed. But to so quickly allow ourselves and others to become accepting of that, as an almost expected and natural occurrence, while waiting for the next unthinkable headline, is unacceptable. We continued to hold multiple sessions at this year’s IFEA Convention, which is also becoming almost the norm each year, to address what we may all do to protect our events and our stakeholders moving forward; and while we will ask everyone in our industry to continue working closely with your law enforcement officials, insurance carriers, professional peers and city management to take every step possible to protect against future tragedies, please remember to let your government and political representatives – at at every level - know that this is unacceptable and that we expect them to take common-sense action to help stem, slow and stop this long-running and expanding pattern that runs in direct conflict with what our events are created to do – to provide safe, welcoming and inclusive participation by all attendees, while celebrating who we are when we are at our best.

  • Woodstock: 40 Years Down the Road and a Nation Lost
    WOODSTOCK: 40 YEARS DOWN THE ROAD AND A NATION LOST Well, I came upon a child of God He was walking along the road And I asked him, Tell me, where are you going? This he told me Said, I’m going down to Yasgur’s Farm, Gonna join in a rock and roll band. Got to get back to the land and set my soul free. As you may have heard, we are on the precipice of the 40th anniversary of Woodstock. The famous, and infamous, cultural milestone took place down on Max Yasgur’s dairy farm outside of Bethel New York between August 15 and August 18, 1969. Thirty-two acts performed, during a sometimes rainy weekend, in front of nearly half a million concertgoers. The history and lore of Woodstock began immediately, it was clear to both those who loved it, and those who hated it, that it was a uniquely seminal moment. Well, then can I roam beside you? I have come to lose the smog, And I feel myself a cog in somethin’ turning. And maybe it’s the time of year, Yes and maybe it’s the time of man. And I don’t know who I am, But life is for learning. We are stardust, we are golden, We are billion year old carbon, And we got to get ourselves back to the garden. Something had happened. Something big and transformational. But what? The prevailing view seems to be that it was a symbol of the discord and unrest of the 60’s, the antiwar movement and the counterculture generation.

  • CNHI Woodstock 20190814
    A half-century later, the mother of all music festivals still resonates ifty years after the fact, it still resonates with us. Tucked up in the Catskill Mountains, the Woodstock Music & Art Fair — promoted as “An Aquarian Exposition, Three Days of Peace and Music,” but known to one and all as simply Woodstock — took place in 1969 over three-plus days. From Friday, Aug. 15, through the morning of Monday, Aug. 18, dairy farmer Max Yasgur’s 600- acre parcel of land in Bethel, New York — forever immortalized in Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock” (ironically, she wasn’t at the event itself) — became the epicenter of the music and cultural universe, a haven for 400,000-plus hippies, bohemians, music lovers and mem- bers of the counterculture. It began when folkie Richie Havens began strumming his gui- tar, kicking off the festival with Paul Gerry/Bethel Woods Collection “From the Prison.” Thirty-two more acts, about 66 hours and several rainstorms later, it ended when guitar god Jimi Hendrix capped off a stellar set with his rendition of “Hey Joe.” Thousands of cars were left stranded for miles and miles en route to the venue as concertgo- ers walked to their destination. Tickets for the festival were $18, but many attendees got in for free when the crowd more than tripled what organizers had anticipated. Dallas Taylor, the drummer for supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (playing just its second-ever show), asked the helicopter pilot James Sarles/Bethel Woods Collection James Sarles/Bethel Woods Collection flying him to the event what body of More than 400,000 people descended on a dairy farm in Bethel, N.Y., for the concert held 50 years ago.

BOX 301 BETHEL, NY 12720 845-798-5906 Overview “It’s time we got to Bethel” The Yasgur Road Campground Business Plan is a simple one: Utilize an existing market to its full potential. The Past Max Yasgur made history for the town of Bethel when he originally agreed to host the 1969 Woodstock Music and Arts Festival on his 38-acre alfalfa field. When the anticipated 40,000 attendees a day mushroomed into 500,000 for a week, the tiny hamlet of Bethel became ground zero for a legendary traffic jam that began in an unsuspecting farming community in upstate New York and ended 90 miles south in New York City. To briefly describe the scene as I witnessed it; it began as a gathering for peace, love and music, then quickly turned into a logistical nightmare for the overwhelmed community, then ended as a tribute to peace, love and music. After Woodstock, devotees and revelers returned to Bethel’s famous field annually to celebrate the spiritual force that originally brought them together. For the next 25 years or more, once a year, around the third week of August, Max Yasgur’s innocent alfalfa field became the unwitting host of these impromptu events. However, without proper organization, the gatherings became a burden to the community. The Present The original site of Woodstock is now The Bethel Woods Center for The Arts.
