one of these days Mountainfest will be more known nationally, perhaps even to the Sturgis level, but right now its just a big fat yawn.....lots of potential, but very underwhelming as of now......combine Mountainfest and the Mon County Fair and it would be a huge draw......more rides, exhibits, concerts, concessions, etc.......

I'm sure the 50,000 people who attend the event every year will take your opinion and give it the appropriate consideration it deserves.

So who is the new organizer? Hopefully the new group will see the potential and really turn it into something great.

The organizer is Jamie Summerlin. He is in the Facebook group we visit. He is expanding the event greatly this year.
