[Vision2020] Photos tell all

[J Ford]

Gabe Rench made a statement - heck, several of them - to the Admin Committee 
that was less than honest when trying to convince the city to allow a beer 
and wine garden in Friendship Square (which is a PARK), that the attendees 
did not wear "badges" to the dance/party held during last year's Trinity 
Fest...but if you look at the photos that they have on their own web site, 
it clearly shows the dancers, attendees, musicians, even kids wearing them 
during the festivities on Main Street.

The problem with the badges was that several people of the community NOT 
associated with this "festival" were not allowed into their homes at the 
Moscow Hotel or into the businesses on Main Street because they did not have 
badges.  Gabe flatly denied anyone had badges and that to his knowledge, no 
one was denied access to the area for ANY reason.

Is this going to happen again at this year's fest?  Is there some reason 
this thing couldn't be held at the East Side Park rather then in a major 
area of the CBD, where businesses have to close for 5 hours, peak hours, of 
the day just to accommodate one group?
