The 4th annual Key West Phest will take place on Fri and Sat July 20 and 21st. As in the past, this event is a FREE Community event. This year's lineup includes on Friday, Sunny Jim White making his 3rd consecutive appearance, host band Key West Express, and National recording artist, the Pat McGee Band from Richmond Va.

On Sat, opening the Phest at noon, will be the Latin sounds of Mambo, followed by Jazz sensations, Tri This. We will once again have our decorated boat parade/contest, follwed by authentic Polynesian singers and dancers. As a special treat this year, we will have KD Moore along with Fingers Taylor. And we hope to coax both of them back on stage as Key West Express closes out the Phest. As always, there will be local food vendors, Parakeet Island for the 'Keets', raffles, and fun. There will be shuttles running to the event for 50 cents a ride each way, and limited free parking at the event. If you want to guarantee your spot with the closest parking available, you can purchase a 2 day parking pas for $25. This year, proceeds from the event will benefit the American Cancer Society, and Safenet. For more info, email Heidi at heidi_grum@yahoo.com or call 814.384.0741. Please forward this to anyone who might be interested in the event.

^'s up!

Just wanted to mention we will have some pretty cool auction and raffle items at the Phest. Items to include a copy of Take the Weather with You signed by JB, a hat signed by JB, a Fender guitar and tour shirt signed by Peter Mayer, and a drum head signed by Jimmy and the entire band.
