Successful Mumford & Sons Festival Weekend Shows the Way to Our Future

The happiest crowd I've ever seen.
Well managed public transportation. Bicycle-and pedestrian-friendly streets. P
eople flying in from all across America and overseas, to listen to great folk music and groove on our Nation's Oldest City.
Young, cool, hip diverse people who've already re-booked rooms for future visits.
Travel habits formed for a lifetime.
In addition to the paid concert at Francis Field, three free stages, including one at City Hall (Lightner Museum), beautifully lit.
Kudos to City and County staff and elected officials for proving that government can work for the people.
Lesson: We can and will do it again, St. Augustine.
The Future: More diversity and culture, more music festivals, an American Reunion honoring Civil Rights pioneers and Native American history, visits by President Obama and Pope Francis for our 450th, and enactment of the St. Augustine National Historical Park and National Seashore, protecting our history and nature forever. www.staugustgreen.com
Yes we can!
