Strawberry Festival

During the winter solstice around the time the sun went down the Yup’ik tribe of Alaska participated in something interesting: The Bladder Festival. All the bladders of the seals that were killed in the years hunt were dried, filled with air, and then sent out to sea. Someone from today’s time would probably think of this as an odd thing to be doing. When actually, it is a process that embodies deep meanings that reveal the deep appreciation, by the Yup’ik, of the world and its blessings.

In a world of political discourse with racism and hate running rampant, a few great men and women came together to bring unity and harmony like never before: in the form of massive music festivals. In the late 1972, the black community came together for a concert known as Watts Summer Festival. In 1969, the largest music festival of its time was held, and was known as Woodstock. Later that year, the Rolling Stones put together a massive free concert in San Francisco known as the Altamont Concert. All of the concerts and music festivals were not aimed at making money or becoming famous, but about the unity of people through the art of music.

Being one of the biggest attraction in Bloomsburg that only comes once a year it is a huge deal to the residents that live here all year round. The local schools sometimes shuts down for the whole entire week or maybe just for a long weekend. This fair is practically everything you would imagine a state fair would be and they have it all here. You can adopt a puppy, play with farm animals, and whatever you could think you would need they will have it. If your looking for good deals on home decor your best bet is to go when its closer towards the end of the week when the fair is almost over because at that point people do not want to be traveling back home with stuff they brought up and just want to get rid of it. This fair even has all the traditional shows you see in the movies such as the bearded lady, the man with no head, and they even had one named serpent lady all for the cost of 50 cents. Alpha Sigma Alpha devotes their time into this fair every year and withholds two stands, one where you can play darts and the other where you put a quarter down and spin the wheel to see if the arrow lands on the one you picked. They were able to raise up to 2,000 dollars and was equally split and donated towards the S. June Smith Center and Girls on the

In the Fincastle Carnival, there were many games, food, and activities to do. They had bounce houses, face painting, games, photo booths, popcorn, cotton candy, and many other things.

Frisco, Texas has a population of over 100,000 people, and it's located approximately 25 miles from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. This bedroom community is home to many of the professionals who commute to the Dallas Fort Worth area.

The Newbridge County Fair takes place in March for ten days and during those ten days the fair is packed. Everyone looks forward to the fair all year and when it does come around everyone goes as much as possible. At the fair, there is carnival rides and roller coasters, amazing food, and live music and entertainment. The fair has something for everyone and many families get passes for several days. Teenagers in particular, love the fair and go together in groups after school or on the weekend. I often go to the fair with friends on the weekend and we hang out there all day. Of course, no fair experience is ever finished without taking home a bag of delicious cotton candy and so pretty much all families get at least

For many, a fun summer often includes a visit to some sort of fair, whether it be the county fair or even the state fair. One of the unique aspects of the Ohio State Fair, specifically, is that they have their own youth choir known as the All-Ohio State Fair Youth Choir. This is an organization designed to bring high school students from all over the state of Ohio to live at the Ohio State Fair for eighteen days to make music. Throughout this experience, I have learned many important skills that will stick with me throughout the entirety of my life. Here is just a small sample of what I’ve learned.

Plant City is widely known for its many strawberry crops, particularly in the winter. Along

The 40th annual Manly Jazz Festival took place over the long weekend as music lovers of all ages travelled towards the beaches to soak up the sun, sand and the celebration of sound. The festival, held on Manly’s beachfront was a combination of Australia’s beach culture with a love of music. The day drew an eclectic audience, as people from all walks of life came together to enjoy the performances. A diverse array from musicians to the elderly to the very young all crowded in the Corso to listen in to the internationally acclaimed Manly Jazz. As the afternoon sun gave glimpses of summer, many festival goers sought out a spot on the sand or in the water to take in the tunes and cool off.

Imagine going back to childhood and sitting in a school cafeteria during lunchtime. The room is filled with a thunderous roar as all the children laugh and discuss the plans of attack for the impending recess. Fluorescent lights cast a pale greenish glow amongst the young faces as they walk about the aisles looking for the perfect seat, while rows of tables are occupied with the eager students waiting to devour the food in front of them. Aromas of all the food waft through the air, invoking the hungry stomachs to growl with anticipation. Trays are filled with the typical lunch favorites including chicken nuggets, French fries, and a fruit cup with a good variety; however, the best are the small, pink cherries. The beverage of choice to

Other events we attended throughout the semester included the Corrales Harvest Festival in October and the New Mexican Hispanic Arts Dialogue in November. The Harvest Festival is a village wide annual event that celebrates Corrales' agricultural roots. Corrales Road which is in the heart of Corrales, is closed down to traffic. The road is home to many businesses, studios, and restaurants.

The city comes alive as families, pets, and farm

Food is the substance that sustains the human body. Our bodies would perish without the nutrients we obtain from eating; however, there is more to food than simply the energy we gain from eating. The act of eating a meal is a sacred process, sometimes even ritualistic. Families around the world come together around the dinner table to laugh, talk, and reconnect. My family is one of those many, sharing meals at every occasion. Whether it is someone’s birthday, religious holiday or special event, my family never fails to seize the opportunity for eating dinner together. There is a plethora of food options that are generally eaten in my household. When choosing which one to write this final paper on, the choice, at first, was not clear. Each

On Saturday the junior class set up and ran a carnival for children and families on the turf and athletic fields behind Hardwick Hall. Organized over the summer by Mrs. Ryerson and Mrs. Shaw as an orientation activity, events ranged from Corn Hole bean bag toss and ladder-ball to face painting and other arts and crafts. Snow Cones and Cotton Candy gave comfort to many in the hot afternoon, and ring toss, bowling, and fishing games brought joy to young faces as they competed for prize tickets on the turf.

Ultra Music Festival (UMF) is a yearly open air electronic music celebration that happens in March in the city of Miami, Florida, United States (DURAN, 2013).In this report I have analysed about the ultra-Miami festival event in USA and what is behind the success of the event. Events rarely succeed or fail it is totally depending on the scheduling and who all are the stakeholders are supporting the particular event. For a successful event there are several potential goals to satisfy and a plethora of stakeholders to involve (Presenza, 2012). Festivals are mostly unique in the events sector how the stakeholders are involved in the events. Media is mainly involved in a group way in television and
