The festival’s annual Food Drive returns this year as a tribute to cherished Electric Forest neighbor, the late Mr. Roy Price. Beginning in 2008, Mr. Price worked tirelessly with festival Food Drive partners Conscious Alliance (at the first two ROTHBURY Festivals and 2011’s inaugural Electric Forest Festival) helping to distribute a whopping 90,300 tons of food! Food donations went directly to those in need in the following local communities: Rothbury, Oceana County, Shelby, Montague and Muskegon. This year, the Electric Forest Roy Price Memorial Food Drive is hosted in his honor. Visit www.electricforestfestival.com for more information.Electric Forest’s Music In Schools Program works to help keep music part of the curriculum in Michigan public schools. By donating money and instruments to local school music program, Electric Forest is bridging the gap between diminishing school budgets and music program resource needs. The Music In School’s Program also offers hands-on experiences to music students including performance opportunities at the festival, as well as on-site mentor opportunities, where students interested in music production “shadow” Electric Forest professionals during the event.
