Thank You

for making Vision Festival XIV a huge success.

The consensus was that this festival rocked!

The Music was spectacular!

And there was dancing in the aisles!

The venue was comfortable with cushy seats, cool air, BBQ and home made delights, thanks to our hard working volunteers!

Plus, there were plenty of good people, like you, filling the seats.
