WELCOME TO THE 2008
SECOND ANNUAL
CHICAGO REGGAE FESTIVAL

IT'S ABOUT TIME OUR GREAT CITY HAS AN ANNUAL REGGAE FEST!

NEW ROOTS PRODUCTIONS LLC AND CHICAGO SPECIAL EVENTS MANAGEMENT, INC. ARE PROUD TO BRING YOU, ONCE AGAIN, THE BIGGEST REGGAE FESTIVAL IN CHICAGO HISTORY. OUR GOAL FOR THIS EVENT IS TO BRING THE POSITIVE REGGAE VIBRATIONS TO CHICAGO, BY PRESENTING THE BEST REGGAE ARTISTS IN THE WORLD AT AFFORDABLE PRICES, WHILE SUPPORTING THE COMMUNITY.

IN 2008 CRF WILL ONCE AGAIN SUPPORT GLOBAL ALLIANCE FOR AFRICA, A GROUP FOCUSED ON STRENGTHENING COMMUNITY & FAMILY CAPACITIES TO PROVIDE EDUCATION AND CARE FOR CHILDREN WHO HAVE LOST ONE OR BOTH OF THEIR PARENTS DUE TO HIV/AIDS

LAST YEAR, CRF ALSO SUPPORTED THE MUNTU DANCE THEATRE
OF CHICAGO, A GROUP THAT PERFORMS TRADITIONAL CARIBBEAN DANCE, AND CONDUCTS TRAINING FOR THE PUBLIC AND AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO.

WE KNOW THAT THIS WILL BE ONE OF CHICAGO'S BEST-LOVED FESTIVALS FOR YEARS TO COME, AND LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ON AUGUST 23RD!
