Northern Rockies Music Festival
Help fund the festival to keep it in Hailey, Idaho.
The annual Wood River Valley event started in 1977, and with competition from other festivals, it has become increasingly difficult to finance the festival and keep it viable in the valley.
There’s an online funding event account at: https://www.gofundme.com/savenrmusicfest
The 2-day festival takes place the first weekend every summer in August at Hailey’s Hop Porter Park.

400,000 lower income Kentucky residents, many racially diverse, will soon be without medical care because two white guys in Kansas believe the government should not help those in need. How were these marginalized groups informed, or not informed, about what could happen to them if they didn’t vote? This governor-elect, a conservative right-wing Tea Party candidate who was elected yesterday in Kentucky, was supported by huge donations from the Koch brothers during the election. Who voted? Conservative white people. Votes count. Every single one.
