[Dixielandjazz] San Diego Thanksgiving Dixieland Jazz Festival

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

I was able to attend this festival last year and I loved everything about  
it.  Best wishes to all who are attending and/or performing there this  year!  
(Even the guy handling my luggage at the airport was a volunteer at  the 
festival and made check-in for home a delight.)

Cheers  to the San Diego Festival Promoters who got the San Diego Convention
and  Visitors Bureau to plug their event. And cheers to the C&V Bureau  which
must have sent press releases to the media. This was in today's,  Sunday Nov
12, Philadelphia Inquirer, Travel Section in an article with 10  tips on
where to travel for a different Thanksgiving:

---start  article

"Instead of overeating, head for California and give your ears  a treat at
the San Diego Thanksgiving Dixieland Jazz Festival  -
http://www.sandiego.org/event/Visitors/42 - which promises more than  25
bands. Stay on that page provided by the city's Convention &  Visitors Bureau
to consider hotel packages, and then look for the link to  the festival's Web
site."

---end article

The C&V web  site, which lists the Festival as the "Featured Event" has basic
festival  information plus a link to the Festival web site. San Diego list
mates  might let the Festival folks know that their efforts to hook up with
the C  & V Bureau paid off, at least in Philadelphia.

Cjheers,
