EVent Details:
The Big Pig 2011:
This year will feature live music by national and regional acts on
two stages Friday and Saturday night. Friday night will also feature a
late night DJ tent to take all you nocturnals into the early morning.
Enjoy on site camping, bon fires, and all the activities you've
come to love in a weekend festival. Smiling faces and wandering
consciousnesses highly likely. 10% of the Big Pig Committee's profits,
as well as $2 from every shirt or hoodie sold, will be donated through
charity to Ripley City and Cincinnati Public Schools. Gotta give a bit
back to the trough.
Bring tent, camping gear, food, water, ice, grills for cooking,
games, body paint, good attitudes and appropriate clothing for late
Sept/early Oct (remember to check the weather conditions for rain).
BYOB, no glass or pets please.
