2/10/06 - Contributions reach $16,000

As of Friday, June 10, total funds generated from the Annual Ferndale Metro Blues Festival V have reached the astounding amount of over $16,000. (Last year's final total was $14,000)
The total jumped today after Dean Bach, owner of Dino's on Woodward Ave. south of Nine Mile Road, brought us his donation. Dean has won each year since 2003 the coveted "Pig's Head Award" which goes to the venue that raises the most money during the Blues Festival. Today Dean brought us checks and cash of $3,600! This is an increase of over 55 % from 2005.
More money is coming in daily.
