Actually, the original name was the Hudson Valley Folk Picnic, held on one of the publicly operated estates along the Hudson. It evolved into the Revival, at which time the numbering started over. As Ron says, the information is available, largely on line.

If you wish to spend time digging in the archives, call 845 454 7673 and they will probably be pleased to make arrangements for you to visit the office. Ask Amy to help you get things rolling.

We are now taking applications for volunteers for the festival on a first come first served basis.

Come visit me and some of the other Sloop Singers at the Working Waterfront or scattered around the site. Pete generally hangs out at the Environmental Village. A prime spot is at the Sloop Club tent and at the various smaller stages.
