Board members are in touch with the Irvine Co., which has assisted the organization with site locations for several festivals, said board president Feeta Walker. But board members are looking at other options as well and have set May 1 as a deadline for arranging a site. The festival is tentatively set for Oct. 5-7. Walker said they are open to a permanent or temporary site if one can be found by the deadline. In addition to looking for a site, the Festival Foundation is also seeking new board members and volunteers.
Board members attend monthly planning sessions and are assigned to specific teams or committees.
Volunteers help throughout the year and during the event.
