Why be a HOTAfest Supporter? http://www.hotafest.com/images/upload/donorcoverletter.pdf

There are many good reasons to support HOTAfest. Hundreds of visitors from outside the area experience the beauty & friendship we offer here in Bradford. These folks love folk music and dance, and also bring a significant economic impact to our area. Your business name and information will be displayed prominently on the website, in the program, and at the festival. This is a well-established annual event that, with your help, will continue to grow & help this community. Please consider becoming a HOTA Sponsor!

All of the money ever raised for the festival has gone back into the festival. Performers have done small concerts for little to no pay in the past, but with gas prices rising and various other factors, this has been increasingly hard to maintain. A donation to HOTAfest would help to enrich our community in the traditional music and values that are so refreshing.
