News from Bean Blossom

The Bean Blossom Brown County Jamboree Preservation Foundation, which supports the famous Music Park in Bean Blossom, Indiana - once owned by the Father of Bluegrass, and owned and operated as a memorial to him by former Blue Grass Boy Dwight Dillman since 1997 - announces that the Bill Monroe Memorial Bean Blossom Bluegrass Festival will be held on 13-20 June 2009.

The Park now has a new website, which carries a great deal of information relating to Bill Monroe as well as many links, including those to the museum and store. If you've ever envied the BIB editor's black T-shirt with an image of Mr Monroe, this is the place to get one!
