Helefest

Helefest MUSIC. FRIENDS. FUN. As he was shampooing, ONE POWERFUL shower-thought would change his life forever. It was settled. There was no U-Turn. He did bottle drives.

What started as a birthday weekend away with the homies, has quickly escalated into an opportunity to fulfill a dream of mine which is to host a freelance music and arts festival- so it is with great pleasure that I present- HELEFEST 2017


A two day creative freelance festival bringing together friends, artists, musicians and entrepreneurs alike. My hope is that this festival will be an opportuni

ty for creatives to connect and build upon these newly founded relationships going forward to help each excel on there own path! speaking of creatives, the base of this festival would not be possible without the ambitious creativity of Sonic Steve and his much anticipated Jambulance-

Sonic Steve was depressed one day, daydreaming about doing something with his average life. "Screw starting a band," Sonic Steve thought, "Just become a traveling sound guy... from an ambulance... no... no... A JAMMBULANCE." He rushed out of the shower, and madly scribbled ideas into his notebook. Sonic Steve saved up all his money teaching, and gigging. He raised 4,000 dollars. He met amazing lads on Craigslist, worked multiple jobs, and puzzled the pieces together. Sonic Steve learned to drive stick, and drove hundreds of miles back to VT in the hazy nights of April with a broken battery, mapless, and haggard. It was a treacherous journey, sleeping inside the ambulance, only going a top speed of 60 MPH, needing truckers to jump him at every stop, but he finally made it home, and began customizations. He tossed on safety glasses, grabbed sawzalls, jigsaws, crowbars, electrical wires, neon lights, shag carpets, a few IPAS, some elbow grease, and 2X4s, a couch from Turkey, Phish's old stage, and fixed up the sucker. The myth of Sonic Steve is transforming everyday, and just beginning to be a Bildungsroman. He sees open fields of sonic waves in the summer of 2017 zigzagging along the pine trees and oceans of the East. Equipment List
1. JBL, SONIC, MACKIE SPEAKERS AND SUBS.
2. 20 X 20 POP UP TENT
3. 8 X 12 X 2 STAGE
4. 1980 CHEVY
5. SHAG CARPET
6. LIGHTS AND DISCO BALLS. Now, Sonic Steves Jambulance will serve as the focal point of what is a 3-stage set up at Helefest 2017! Layout:

Essentially it will be 7 cabins laid out in a semi-circle, a heated pool, 2 hot tubs, firepit, volleyball court, horseshoe pit, an acoustic stage w/ seating around the campfire, and of course the "Jambulance"

These beautiful cabins are set in the side of a mountain on a quiet road, they have all the modern conveniences

beyond the cabins, we also offer a plethora of 10' x 15' camping sites that can split among up to 4 attendees with GA bracelets! Located just 1 & 1/2 miles from the center of town, but far enough out of town to be peaceful and secluded. Seven cozy 2 & 3 bedroom cabins with full size kitchens, bathrooms, oil heat, air conditioning, ceramic tile & carpeted floors and TV's with Satellite. Cabins all have front porches with gas grills for barbecuing and porch furniture for enjoying the outdoors without leaving your cabin. “Free Wi-Fi, long distance calling, and Satellite TV in all cabins. Bathrooms have all the nice fluffy towels you'll need for your stay. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/helefest-2017-tickets-33860014214?utm-medium=discovery&utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&aff=escb&utm-source=cp&utm-term=listing
