ROTHBURY Music Festival Area braces for first-time festival

Put your ear to the ground.
Can you hear it? The stampede that is inching its way toward West Michigan?
They’re headed to Double JJ Ranch and Resort for the now world famous ROTHBURY Festival, which is expected over the July Fourth holiday weekend to draw 30,000 to 50,000 music lovers to the small village that gave the festival its name.
Traffic
Traffic backups should be expected July 3 along North US-31 as festival goers make their way to the festival and exit at Winston Road and head up Water Road toward the festival campground.
Though not expected to be quite as crowded, US-31 traffic coming from the north could cause backups at M-120 as well. The festival campground is slated to open at 8 a.m. Thursday morning.
Traffic officials are urging locals to stay east of Double JJ and use Oceana Drive for travel near the festival, which will offer art, on-site camping, and an energy fair.

Thank God I am finally employed again! I never thought I would be this excited to have a job. I am sure after a week of it I will be ready to go back to my “lounging” days but can’t wait for the 14th! I will be ready to go. I love how concerned everyone was for me :) Spent a good part of the day on the phone telling everyone who was waiting to hear. Trust me though, I am the most relieved!!
I have to say to have 6 weeks off in the summer is not the end of the world but I am ready for my break to be over with. Bring it. Hello Northwestern Mutual!
Well you know everything’s gone to hell in a handbasket if Starbucks is closing locations.
They could have remained on if they had played by China’s rules and allowed the government to censor their content. But unlike Google and Yahoo and everybody else, Mark Zuckerberg refused to play by their rules and told them to go fuck themselves.
Hats off to you, Mark.
