{ Tribute }
Talkin’ ’bout my generation BRAD HENDRICKS December 1941 to May 2014
Remembering Brad, who went down with his Tevas on, under the weight of one too many heavy logs. Bright, aware, alive and “getting ’er done” and then he was gone. I remember Brad at a long ago Mountain Fair, shirtless, waving an arm to indicate all of Sopris Park: “This could be a fair anywhere in the world – India, Istanbul.” And Brad Hendricks was at home in the world whether he was hitchhiking in Romania, under a broke down truck in Guatemala, or in the thick of Mountain Fair.
For 40 years of the summers of our lives, I can see him: in the old days, building the stage every year, serving on the fair board, pouring beer in his maculate white tuxedo, judging pies dressed as a plaid crazed golfer, splitting an ornery log wearing his disco best, napping in the shade with a sleeping grandchild sprawled on his lap, or tearing up the dance floor at the invitation of a nubile dancing girl. Brad repeated his observation most every year including last year: “This could be a fair anywhere in the world.” Breathing in the Mountain Fair, he grinned real big and reminded me, “it won’t get any better than this.” – By Brenda Buchanan

Welcome to the
Wild At Heart: Celebrating Our People, Town & Wilderness
43 CARBONDALE MOUNTAIN FAIR! RD
We are Wild At Heart in so many ways. But that wild is a good one, like the wilderness we are honoring this year. Throughout the festival you will see wildness and wilderness celebrated and expressed through music, spoken word and visual arts. I continue to be in awe of the creativity that thrives in the Roaring Fork Valley. The Carbondale Council on Arts and Humanities is one of the reasons it thrives. We are turning 40 years old this year and our older sister, this fair, has been our benefactor and protector. It allows us to manifest meaningful educational programs in our public schools. It helps us provide space for artists to show and sell their work. It causes the wonderful integration of cultures that we see swirling about our town and it allows us to bring community together year round. CCAH is expanding into a new space this year, the former Gordon Cooper Library building, in the downtown core in Carbondale, where we will be able to foster more artistic collaboration and host a range of community events. Come visit and join our creative tribe! Enjoy the fair! It’s our BIG thank-you to you! Amy Kimberly CCAH Director

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Wilderness Act. Signed into law on Sept. 3, 1964, this landmark statute established the National Wilderness Preservation System, and along with the first 54 wilderness areas protected our own Maroon Bells-Snowmass. Since then our local wilderness areas have grown to more than 750,000 acres and more than 109 million acres across the country. The community is celebrating this big Five-O, with the gigantic Maroon Bells Birthday Bash at the base of Aspen Highlands on Aug. 2. The Wilderness Act has been called “the most beautiful piece of legislation ever written.” In soaring language it speaks of the need “to secure for the American people of present and future generations the benefits of an enduring resource of wilderness.” In its most memorable passage, it defines wilderness as “an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain.” The Wilderness Act was, and remains, an historic gesture of humility and restraint toward the natural world. It establishes, as a matter of law and policy, that it’s in the national interest to set aside some places to remain in their natural state. 50 years later, the value of wilderness becomes ever clearer. Even as we alter our planet at an ever-accelerating pace, we’re better understanding the extent of our impacts on ecosystems. More than ever, we need large “untrammeled” places where wildlife can find refuge, where natural processes can continue to play out, and yes, where we humans can find solitude and recreation.

{ Important Information }
Reduce Your Fair-print!
MOUNTAIN FAIR SUSTAINABILITY The Carbondale Mountain Fair is a national trendsetter by composting and recycling 90 percent of its waste. Compost from the fair is turned into soil. Please be part of this solution, not the problem, by assisting the volunteer-powered Green Team with proper sorting. We thank our zero-waste partners: Evergreen Events, New Belgium Brewing, the Pitkin County compost facility, the Carbondale Environmental Board and YOU for being part of the Green Team! Stop by the Green Team tent to chat about volunteering and our sustainability efforts.
RE-USE IS THE BEST WAY TO REDUCE WASTE!
❁ Although most of the waste from
the Fair is composted, the #1 way for you to personally reduce your “fair-print” and conserve local resources is to voluntarily bring your own water bottles, coffee mugs, plates and utensils from home and wash them at the drinking water stations. Please inquire in the Cantina about a discount for re-using your 12-ounce plastic cup for liquor drinks. Remember, the New Belgium beer cups are compostable, but they can be used again (no discount on beer, sorry).
COMPOST CORRECTLY, RECYCLE RIGHT, LANDFILL LAST
❁ Sort your waste in the properly marked containers at our WASTE STATIONS where you will find friendly volunteers. Just about anything you purchase from a food vendor goes in the green compost bins. All food scraps, utensils, plates, bowls, cups and paper products are compostable. ❁ We do not sell bottled water at the fair. We have several WATER STATIONS full of clean mountain water marked with red and white water signs. Please bring your own reusable container and keep it with you. Compostable cups are available at the stations. ❁ Please promote re-use by leaving this program at the Entrance/Exits for others to use.
ALCOHOL CANNOT BE BROUGHT INTO THE PARK OR TAKEN OUT.
❁ Buy your refreshments at the Sopris Cantina and walk around the park (except for the Oasis). The Cantina sells New Belgium beer, the locally made Roaring Fork Beer Mountain Fair Brew and our famous Freshies mojitos, as well as some refreshing vodka concoctions and Big B's hard

Carbondale
ciders. Special Bloody Marys will be available Saturday and Sunday mornings. ❁ IDs and wristbands are required for persons drinking alcohol. All coolers will be inspected at the entrances of the fair, and we expect all fairgoers to comply with these regulations.
BICYCLES
❁ MUST BE PARKED in the bike corrals at the Forest Service parking lot off of Weant or the Seventh Street swimming pool area. Failure to comply may result in removal of your bike from the park. Thanks to Aloha Mountain Cyclery!
HANDICAPPED PARKING & HANDICAPPED RESTROOMS
❁ Parking and handicapped-accessible restrooms are available at the U.S. Forest Service parking lot on Main Street, which allows easy access into the Oasis area. ❁ Park restrooms are also handicapped accessible. ❁ Proper identification must be posted on vehicles or they will be towed.
FIRST AID
❁ The Carbondale Volunteer Fire Department will once again staff the First Aid Booth, located in front of the pavilion at the Open Space.
COOL DOWN
Photo by Mark Burrows
❁ A misting shower will be set up behind the Gazebo at the corner of Seventh & Euclid. Fairgoers are invited to cool off throughout the day.
LAWN CHAIRS, UMBRELLAS & SHADE COVERINGS
❁ Shade tents are chosen through a lottery process. This process ended on July 21. If you did not get a chance to participate we are very sorry. Our hope is to raise enough money through our lottery system to create a large shade tent that will house many folks together and do away with individual tents. Lottery winners are still expected to share their space if they are not using it. ❁ Lawn chairs placed in an arc in front of the sound booth must be of the low variety, without a high back.
REMINDERS
❁ No dogs, pets or glass allowed in the park. Citations will be issued. ❁ No alcohol may be brought into the park or taken out. ❁ No bicycles in park.
Thanks for helping!

The Carbondale Council on Arts and Humanities was founded 40 years ago by community members like you who saw the arts as essential to the heart and soul of Carbondale. Through promotion of the arts, artists, arts education, cultural activities and events, CCAH has been instrumental in forming Carbondale’s unique identity as an arts and culture hot spot in the Rockies. With your support and participation, CCAH continues to collaborate with artists, businesses, schools, teachers, youth, town trustees and others to cultivate a strong community where the creative spirit is at its core! Each year the state of Colorado recognizes new communities whose identity and culture are rooted in arts and creativity as a part of its Creative District designation program. Carbondale was recently selected along with seven other Colorado towns, to participate in this program through Colorado Creative Industries, a division of the Office of Economic Development and International Trade.

G 5:15 Muskateer Gripweed In the powder keg that is the Fort Collins music scene, one band above all others threatens to make a spark. Self-described as an “American Revival Stomp Shake Ass Holla” band, Musketeer Gripweed is easily the most unique act to emerge from the Choice City. Equal parts roots rock, Delta blues and performance art, a Musketeer Gripweed performance transports audiences to a world long crisscrossed with dusty country roads and populated by highway bandits, snake-oil salesmen and charlatans.
A 5:00 Arts and Crafts Booths begin closing
Mix the Hot Club of Paris with the sweaty soul of Dixieland, a couple blades of bluegrass, a pinch of ragtime beat, and a western swinging swagger and you’ve just conjured the sound of The Appleseed Collective. As Current describes them, “If the Roma gypsies had somehow wound up scattered throughout Appalachia instead of Eastern Europe, their music would sound a helluva lot like The Appleseed Collective — a little gypsy, a little Dixie.” A lovely Sunday afternoon musical interlude!

G 7:00 The Iguanas What a great way to end the weekend! The Iguanas play different kinds of music, never following a certain set list or structure. On any given night, they can easily switch from roots rock to tropical funk, English to Spanish. The band members embrace it all. Combining jazz, zydeco, blues and Tex-Mex music with R&B and roots rock, the Iguanas have spent nearly 30 years cultivating a loyal live following. They will, literally, bring down the house for the fair’s ending!
G 9:00 The 2014 Mountain Fair Slideshow Thanks to Mark Burrows, Jane Bachrach and a host of sexy photographers!
Betty Hoops Hula Hoop Contest
In the Open Space, Kids & Adults, beginner/advanced. Try your shot at over 50 basic hoop techniques, hoop limbo, obstacle course, mini trampoline and more!
