THE PLEA FOR GOOD NEIGHBOR DAY 2001, ON JULY 21ST!!!


I propose that a festival be granted to the “Good Neighbor Day” (GND) organization with the NDP2001 group to provide live music to the citizens of Washington for the evening of JULY 21st from approximately 3pm until 8:00pm.


I've talked with four to five local music acts that would be willing to perform. Of these bands, some are seriously looking at possible major record label contracts because of their high quality of music.

It would be a great boost to the musicians if they knew that they had the backing and support of the public of Washington, and what better way to have that, than to perform on one of the last evenings of the summer.

The Benefits:

This evening would provide a free atmosphere of music and great, good old-fashioned fun for the public of Washington.

These musical acts are seriously working at providing their listeners with a positive atmosphere, and this will give them the hometown recognition that they deserve.

This fun time would greatly benefit the citizens of the city of Washington by giving them a safe alternative to the typical evening.

Our side activities would include croquet, singing, dancing, guitar and saxophone playing, listening to music, playing video games, philosophical talk, and possibly providing free grilled food and refreshments (a root beer keg) to those in attendance.


All the response we have received has been consistently positive.

Please let us continue this, and for this one July 21st Saturday evening, allow a few promising young music acts to show off their talent to the delight of the city of Washington.

This would only benefit the township, and it would easily bring some much-needed good ole fashioned fun to our town.

Thank you,
