We, the undersigned, petition The Old Town School of Folk Music, The City of Chicago, and the Chicago Park District to restore the Old Town Folk and Roots Festival at Welles Park for 2012.
I really need more people to see this right now because we keep climbing toward that two hundred fifty mark and I just know it will change how the parks department looks at us. Please tell a few neighbors about the festival because if we hit that milestone before the weekend ends it might actually give us the leverage we need to get a meeting.

Such a shame it stopped. The music was always top notch and the vibes were perfect.

Why did they kill this? Welles Park feels so empty without the music.
