Hi Gina, We just wanted to let you know that we were blown away by Porch Fest this year! In our opinion, it is the best thing that has taken place in our neighborhood since we moved into Gerstle Park in 1990. The whole experience was very uplifting!
Please pass along high praise to the Porch Fest Committee for their stellar organization and planning. We were beyond impressed with how smoothly everything went: the beautiful poster/instruction pack delivery, friendly volunteers who stopped by, street cone/extension cord/sign drop offs, coordinated musician scheduling, amazing food trucks...logistically, it was brilliantly executed. We also appreciated it being promoted as a family event, so the crowds seemed very wholesome and safe.
I also want to say, we LOVED the Meredith Edgar Trio and Amy & Manny! They sounded fantastic in person, and everyone was super considerate and kind.
We would be excited to host again next year if that is an option. Thanks to you and the entire committee for making us proud to live in Gerstle Park.
With gratitude, Michelle & John
