Joanne Hague http://www.woodstockpreservation.org Woodstock - Preservation Archives "Dedicated to the Historic Preservation of the Site of the 1969 Woodstock Music and Arts Festival" In the wake of the efforts that took place in pursuit of the historic preservation of the original Woodstock Site, a new website has emerged - the Woodstock - Preservation Archives, which may be one of the best sources of Woodstock information for the interested public and students alike. This website is not only about Woodstock 1969, it’s about Woodstock: then and now. We believe that the facts, fiction, legend, mythology, and general power of what is "Woodstock" will continue through our youth and a unique program has been developed whereas; we have made it possible for students working on projects or essays, to have the opportunity to receive first-hand information by corresponding with our "Woodstock Historians" - men and women, who attended the event in "69. Our Historians are available not only to answer questions, but to share memories and viewpoints with students researching this event. We also offer these students a place on our website, to share their works with others to enjoy and learn from. We also feature "Memories" - a place for those who attended the festival, to have the opportunity to share one of their own. In addition, our website also serves as a template for other grassroots historic preservation movements. A multitude of information, photos, video, audio and more, abound on this website. Unlike other Woodstock ‘tribute’ websites, the Woodstock Preservation Archives serves to ensure that the struggle to preserve the festival site is not lost as Bethel Woods -Center for the Arts rises in the Catskills, and also to inspire others to speak up for what they believe in, regardless of the barriers that face them. I assure you that this website is fun, interesting, educational and informative, and in the spirit of the original Woodstock advertisement catchphrase, the Woodstock Preservation Archives provides "Hundreds of Acres to Roam On."
