Festival Mission:

Our core mission is to protect and restore the Chesapeake Bay through education, awareness and donations generated by a wonderful weekend of music and community. Part of all proceeds from ticket, food, beverage and merchandise sales will go to Maryland-based non-profit organizations that work tirelessly to protect the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed. As we like to say: "Every Jam Saves the Bay!"

Our secondary mission is increasing mental health awareness in our communities and connecting the public with important mental health and wellness resources. We believe "Every Jam Helps a Mind"

💔 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐬𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐃𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐨𝐧?
She was a country music legend, a bluegrass soul, a songwriter's songwriter.

Her songs have been sung on front porches and in honky-tonks, on bluegrass stages and country radio, by generations of musicians for over six decades.

Dolly was the queen. Country music royalty. Funny, gracious, generous, and hardworking. She gave people hope. She spread kindness and reminded us to 𝐛𝐞 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝.

There will never be another Dolly.

Rest in peace, Dolly. 💔
