I do thank you all for expressing your enthusiasm for the event, though, and hope you will be understanding and supportive of the CAA as we prepare for next year's Flutterby Festival at WaterColor.

From the comments above, sounds like the festival has got some supporters who are willing to throw some cash into the event--strike while the iron is hot.

Back to Nature - Family Fun Day

I'm sorry to read that the Flutterby Festival will not be held this year. It's such a wonderful event for the kids, though I'm sure next year will be spectacular.

For those looking for something fun to do for the whole family, the SWCC is having their annual Back to Nature Festival with a new feature this year. SWELL is organizing a Family Fun Day as part of the event. The festival will be held on Oct. 18, from 10-4 at the Seaside Lyceum. The details are being finalized, though we are planning to have nature oriented, entertainment and information for the whole family. I'll post again soon with a list of participants and look for the press releases.

Any chance that you could add the Butterfly Wings for the children. Many of us would be glad to help, I'm sure.

GW58, I know that the Back to Nature Festival will offer a butterfly walk and I don't see why some of the activities from Flutterby can't be incorporated into our event. If you know of some folks that would like to volunteer or participate, please send them my direction.

How much does the festival cost? :dunno: Considering the tens of thousands the TDC has been spending on signs etc. I will be quite annoyed if one of the monsters took away a funn educational opportunity.

I would think that a couple dollar entrance fee and a call for donations could make it still happen.
