Most of the booked entertainers will be staying at the Swiss Holiday Resort (my folks motel). Book your rooms soon, because he's only opening a few to non-musicians guests. For reservations call 1-888-582-2220 (email: bwshr@ipa.net). Make ticket reservations through the City Auditorium by calling 479-253-7788 or call The Swiss Holiday and request the City Auditorium's toll free number. The 2003 Eureka Springs Bluegrass Festival received recognition from publications such as Bluegrass Unlimited. Dad is talking to Martin, Gibson, and Deering Banjo companies about having sponsorships at the 2004 Bluegrass Festival along with Bluegrass Unlimited and other nationally know publications. He is putting "CLASS BACK INTO BLUEGRASS."
