This banner embraces the efforts that were put forth prior to the evolution of historic preservation. The Woodstock Preservation Alliance is the banner which the Preservationists stood under throughout their efforts for the historic preservation of the Woodstock Site. The "Dove Behind the Fence" was a signature logo used by the Woodstock Preservationists to raise awareness and the chain-link fence is symbolic of the fact that the privilege to walk freely on the Woodstock Site, is no longer allowed.

Dear Brad,

You can use my photos with credit. I also have photo from 1969 which are outstanding.

I believe that what happened during the 1994 Woodstock event that occurred at the original Woodstock Music and Art Fair site is the type of event that should occur every year. It was a spontaneous concert put together by
volunteers to honor the most important event of the century by and for the people. In 1994 musicians donated their time and so did the stage and sound crews. Security was simple and the only divider between the stage
and the people was a rope and duck tape was used instead of laminated passes.

The only difference should be that we go back to the original security idea of people who want to help keep the concert safe and sane use arm bands with flying pigs on them to honor our great leader Wavy Gravy. For without
the Phil Osophy of Wavy Gravy and his band of Hog Farmers and friends, Woodstock would not have the same connotation that it does today.

This sacred site should be honored as it has been since 1969 with the minimum amount of structures.

I also think that drinking of alcohol should be banned from any concert at this site.

Let me know if I can help you in any other way.

Peace, Lisa Law
