A huge thank you to everyone who came out and helped make Rooster Walk 2 a raging success on May 28-29!

We had about 2,000 of our closest friends at Blue Mountain Festival Grounds over Memorial Day weekend, an awesome increase from the 1,200 faithful who attended Rooster Walk 1. What's more, this year's turnout came despite rainy weather on Friday and a foreboding forecast on Saturday. Just imagine the crowd we'll have next year, when the weather is perfect!!!

We need to thank so many people who made Rooster Walk 2 a raging success: Penn-Shank Memorial staffers, festival volunteers, all the rocking bands and our festival supporters (including a very special thanks to primary sponsors Trout in the Classroom and the Dan River Basin Association, courtesy of Martinsville orthodontist Dr. David Jones).

Keep an eye on this site and our news blog for updates in the coming weeks and months. We'll try to get some RW2 music to you guys, and we'll let you know about other developments as they unfold. In particular, we're excited to crunch some numbers and announce our donation to the Penn-Shank Memorial Scholarship fund at Martinsville High School!

One last thing: Go ahead and mark your calendars for Memorial Day weekend on May 27-28, 2011. We're gonna do this thing again, bigger and better than ever. Thanks for all the support; y'all are the best!!!
