What a day! I wished I could have personally thanked each person in attendance .

From every possible perspective of Atwood Stadium it looked like everyone was having a great time. Rhonda from Grand Blanc brought her air guitar and jammed with Mark’s every song. Go girl! Locomotion- how can anyone take that sitting down? Great performance by everyone! I appreciate all your positive comments!

This was an incredible feat.

Thanks to everyone for all the help. Sponsors, vendors, VIP caterer, thanks. Security, CSSI from Grand Blanc did an outstanding job!

A local company was initially contacted to provide the sound and stage for this event. However, per Mark Farner’s contract it could not be met locally. But, to set the record straight, that attempt was made.

There is much more to planning an event like this than the poster has knowledge.We have already been contacted regarding making this an annual event. Who should be the next performer at Atwood 2010?

Whom should we have next year?

I know, I know! GET THAT MARK FARNER KID FROM DOWN THE STREET! (No one will ever appreciate it more)

Mark gave the concert of his life and I had the time of my life!

Bravo Lynn and Terry! A job well done! The "vibes" inside that Stadium were friendly and beautiful, your both great hosts!

1.You have to pay to play! 2.Sometimes you have to put up or shut up. 3.To be credible we have to put our money where our mouth is. In a depression, in Flint MI, I produced ,$, a rock concert festival in Atwood Stadium directly benefiting 3 non profits. If this becomes a spark to ignite the use of this stadium then it was time and money well spent. By application of 1-3, I Have earned the right to ask you what will you do this year to help your community? Some of you can invest money all of you can invest expertise and time.
