A great venue for all the kids of the island is the public library. We have a beach in front and could get a permit for a concert. We would probably use it for a fund raiser in terms of sponsors. Of course free for the public We are also right in the middle of town and have an exsisting summer program that it could piggy back on.

You know... I like it. After I post this, I'm going offline & give them a call. I'm all for helping as many as possible with one trip- Holy Cross, the library, new balls & nets for the basketball court... actually- I always tell my people to bring at least one hard-cover book to read and then donate it to the local library.
What are the chances of combining an unknown American act with a well-known local act for maximum effect... somebody like Dennis Wolfe ?
You mention a beach in front of the library... I'm trying to visualize this... where would the musicians go? Is there some sort of a stage ? Do people sit on the sand? You say "We could..." "We would..." Are you the librarian ? Is it you that would have to do all the scheduling and local arrangements?
