Sunday, June 9: The Fred Eaglesmith Traveling Steam Show, and yet another secret performer (or two?)... maybe it will be a previous Roots favorite, or perhaps a new face - check back here or on our Facebook page to keep updated. Ray might even fire up his Twitterator to announce more RotR XIV news!

Roots on the River Festival is volunteer driven and staffed. With 20-25 volunteer staff and an additional 75 weekend volunteers, the festival could not possibly be produced without their unfailing support. Many volunteers have returned for 10 years or more. Vermont Festivals' Ray Massucco started out as a volunteer in 2000 and eventually found himself spending more time than he's willing to admit producing this little gem of a festival.

Charlie Hunter started the festival and now just sneaks onto the webpage now and again to tidy things up. This makes him happy.
