dover Posted July 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 It did use to be free but over the last 15 years I have been going to the festival is continues to grow in size, thus resulting in higher costs. I'll pay the couple bucks :dumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEVE-O Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 This sucked dick not worth 3 bucks if everything else was free. And nope still a shit ton of 14 year old wangster ass kids walking around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downingracing Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Went with my daughter last night. $5/ea to get in (I'm ok with that). Bigger rides than last year, but not nearly as many. Same for games and food. We were there about 20 minuts and left. I live close enough to hear the music - and I agree the lineup was good this year. If it doesn't get better next year (more rides/games/food), we will just stay home and enjoy the tunes on the deck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
