Saving Dicken Woods
How to Help - Enjoy the Benefit Concert, August 21, 2003
Thanks to the generosity of very special musicians, the Friends have
organized a wonderful benefit concert for Thursday August 21, 2003 at
the Ark. Tickets are $20 each ($25 for reserved seats) with all
proceeds benefitting the preservation efforts. According to the Ark's
Calendar of Events:
"Great music and the chance to keep Ann Arbor tree-filled.
A handful of SE Michigan's most loved musicians join together
for a concert to perserve the green world. Local legend and
award-winning guitarist George Beddard will be joined by
Emmy-winning songwriter David Barrett; Matt Watroba, the
voice of SE Michigan's folk community; Khalid Hanifi,
writer/vocalist for jazz group Map of the World; along with
some special guests yet to be named. The proceeds from this
event will help purchase Dicken Woods (located at the corner
of Pauline and Maple on the west side of Ann Arbor) to
perserve the area from development."
