However, this year's festival of fers plenty that's new along with the traditional highlights, said Festival Chairman Guy Auger. "We're trying to really mix it up." he said of the festival committee's efforts to make sure there arc events to please audiences of all ages and interests. The key word is more: more music, more arts and crafts, more events, especially for the younger set. A Saturday afternoon concert fea turing rock and roll music by two lo cal bands targets teenagers, while a magician, clowns, jugglers and chil dren's games are among the enter tainment aimed at smaller children.
