To Bethel Woods Center for the Performing Arts

Bethel, NY :

Time Magine has called Woodstock the most peaceful three day event in history! The 45th anniversary of this historic event is fast approaching.

This iconic event is part of American History and its lessons are taught in our schools today. This event belongs to the American People. You have the ability to honor this event and the men who made it possible by opening your site to The Woodstock Nation.

In August 1969, one of the most celebrated music festivals in history took place on your site. Over 500,000 people from across the country gathered in these fields to celebrate "Three Days of Peace and Music." The three days of legendary performances, rain, mud, and unforgettable experiences helped the Woodstock Music and Art Fair become a symbol of an entire generation -The Woodstock Generation.

In the past you have hosted original acts and cover performances to commemorate this event. Your Museum and venues have helped to keep the Spirit of Woodstock alive for future generations. Forty-Five years is a historic milestone, in that many of the original attendees are still living.

We petition you to bring back Mr. Kornfeld, Mr. Lang, Joel Rosenman, the three surviving promoters and reunite them with their fans on the weekend of August 15, 2014.
