Thank you to everyone who attended or participated in the first Joppenbergh Jam! You made it a roaring success. A special thank you to the artists, Dog on Fleas and Mark Brown, for contributing their time and talent to our free community event. Thanks to Billy Liggan for his extensive help, and the Rosendale Farmers Market for letting us use their equipment. Thank you to the Rosendale International Pickle Festival, All Motor Cars, and SWDS for sponsoring the event; we could not have done this without you! Thanks to the Wallkill Valley Land Trust for permitting us to use their land, and to our volunteer security guard David and parking volunteers Ron, Andrew, Trish and Diana for making sure everything ran smoothly and safely.
It was a big learning curve for us as an organization to discover how complicated holding an event in town can be. Thank you to the Town of Rosendale for approving this event so quickly and making sure we got all the permissions necessary so that this wonderful concert could come into existence!
We at Rosendale Heart and Soul are thrilled with the turnout, and the overwhelmingly positive feedback we received. Everyone had a great time, and we hope to bring more live music to Rosendale next year.
