Letter from Kathy Bieloh, Owner of Moondance Jam:
Dear Moondance Jammers,
Let me start by sharing that I am sincerely sorry for not being able to publicly respond to our recent announcement for this year’s event. Legally, I was advised to not share anything until we had clarity on what information could be shared publicly. This series of events all transpired within the last eight days. Despite our trying to work through the circumstances, this is the only viable option. Your grace in understanding that is sincerely appreciated.
Everyone who knows me and our Moondance crew, knows that we are so sincerely sorry that this decision had to be made. We just did not meet the necessary financial thresholds to produce a festival with national touring attractions.
My sincere thanks to all of you who have publicly and privately supported me with your heartfelt texts and posts. You have truly proven to be my Moondance family with your love and understanding of what has happened this year. After 32 years of hosting the best music fans in the country, it is not easy to have to disappoint my family with this decision.
In spite of having to change the lineup, I am personally asking you to support me and our Moondance crew and join us at Camp Moondance being held on the same dates (July 18-20) at Moondance. We are currently securing the best of the best in regional talent and the line-up and schedule will be posted this week. You can expect that there will be vendors (both food and non-food), wine and beer tasting, the ever so famous Yahtzee, Organized Chaos Music Bingo, and more. Please encourage your friends and family to join us at the “Campin’ and Jammin’ Event of the Summer” where it’s all about the Moondance Experience, founded on the positive traditions of music, good times, and celebration. And as our founder always said, “The best ships are friendships!”
For ticket holders that choose not to attend, we will miss you and completely understand your decision. A full refund will be available and honored. Please call Renee at (218) 836-1055 to share your contact information to begin the process for full reimbursement.
Again, my sincere apologies to all of you. I truly hope that we can enjoy the music, the friendships, and the memories of Moondance at Camp Moondance on July 18-20. To those of you who are early campers, see you on Wednesday, July 17th!
Sincerely,
Kathy Bieloh
