History

From an idea in Wayne Craig's head to reality…..Here comes the 38th Annual "Hot Fun in The Summertime Stuart Beach Music Festival". Once the sand is trucked in and the Beach Music Bands hit the stage, the party begins just like he dreamed it would.

The ultimate recognition came when Virginia Gov. Douglas Wilder called the Jaycees to a special evening in Roanoke, Virginia to recognize OUR EVENT as the Premier Beach Music Festival in Virginia. Thinking back on how Wayne's dream began, I am reminded of a Delbert McClinton song "Sometimes All It Takes Is A Leap Of Faith". My friend Wayne knew that the power to change lives is in each of us and he went around helping to bring that power out in others…..I know because he got me to join the Jaycees which set my life on a course of service thru volunteerism. Patrick County is better because Wayne was here…leaving "Good Tracks" for others to follow.
