Why do I Volunteer to Serve on the Commission?: I met Doug Miller in 1997 when he hired my band to perform at the Freedom Fair.  (We ended up performing for years in a row)  Last year after leaving the music business, I asked Doug if he needed any help with the Freedom Fair.  This is my second year in the administrative side of the event and I enjoy the work, the people, and the excitement.

My Vision for the Future of the Freedom Fair: It’s hard to imagine the event getting any better!
