“This year we have 30 pin-up contestants confirmed says Perla Aka “Miss Elvi Pearl” organizer and host of the pin-up pageant.

Lots of  varieties of food vendors and beverages will also be on hand.

“We are known for having the lowest priced drinks at our event. Beers are still $4, and we have some specialty drinks as well. We  have a Rocka-rita (Margarita) and also a cosmopolitan called “The Betty,” says Kennie Cuppetelli, Rockabilly organizer. “We have a not-outside beverage policy this year as well.”

A second stage has been included this year where more bands will be performing at the three-day event.

“This year, we will have tribute bands who do impersonations for a living, such as Johnny Cash, Elvis and many others all playing on Saturday. We have a total of 19 bands,” Cuppetelli said.
