Enquirer Front Cover

I'm honored... first time I've ever been quoted on the front page of any newspaper. Project Lily Pad was in the news again, as we've inked our first grant for hardware, and our first site sponsors. We have dozens of others in the works. We'll see how fast we can get them online!

Midpoint Music Festival Needs Your Help

The Midpoint Music Festival will be back Sept. 21-24. This year MPMF has teamed up with Give Back Cincinnati for volunteer recruitment and management. And the recruitment process has kicked off in ernest now. There are at least 100 volunteers needed to work stages, sell merch., and staff the doors. It's a really fun experience you basically get to hang out at venue all night listening to some great music. But in addition you get the following for staffing just one evening (of course volunteering multiple night is appreciated, but not required):

If you're interested in learning more or singing up check out the volunteer sign-up page, or the MPMF website.
