CANCELLED DUE TO SNOW Alas, the really big snowstorm has brought to naught all of our planning efforts and the willingness of hundreds of volunteers to participate. We'll leave up the information below, so you can see what Mother Nature is forcing all to miss. The FSGW Midwinter Festival is a family-friendly extravaganza of music, dance, stories, workshops, and crafts. Held the first Saturday in February -- which is Saturday, February 6, 2010 -- the Mini-Fest provides a wonderful opportunity to beat the winter blues, visit with friends and neighbors, and be part of some of the finest music and dance that the Washington area has to offer! Want to get in free? Scroll all the way down to the bottom for information on volunteer opportunities.

Volunteers are essential!!. If you can work for two hours, you get in free! Jobs include: Selling tickets, Performer check-in, Instrument security room, Hospitality room, and Information assistant/food sheriff -- and yes, you get to wear a red sequined cowboy hat and a badge for that last one. Sign up at the Sunday night FSGW Dance starting in January, 2010 or email April Blum at minifestmessages(at)aol.com for more information. Are you interested in selling crafts during the Midwinter Festival? Candy Madigan is our crafts coordinator.
