Productions in association with Left
Coast Roadshow.
"Basically, it started out as an
idea for a blues festival here in the
valley," Wilcox said. "We sought
out different sites where we could
have it."
Magnolia has been on some
nine "blues cruises," and he hired
some of the acts from those, Wilcox
said. "Some of the musicians on the
blues cruises wanted to play smaller
venues."
"We named it Harvest Moon
because this is the grass seed capital
of the world," Wilcox said, and it's
about harvest season.
The group started out looking
in Sweet Home, but while they were
looking, the Sweet Home Rodeo
was still expected to operate this
year, Wilcox said. "Cheadle Lake
basically dropped into our laps. It
was available for our dates."
They didn't want to try to use
school property, trampling the grass
two weeks apart with the Jamboree,
she said. "When Cheadle Lake was
offered to us, we went and had a
look at the site."
With some 35 acres, it was
plenty, she said. They got the idea
because they heard from many blues
fans that they weren't able to make
it to the Portland Waterfront Blues
Festival.
"The foundation has done
a fantastic job getting this site

prepared for this event," Wilcox
said. "You won't find greener grass
than at Cheadle Lake."
They decided to bring a blues
festival to the mid-Willamette Valley
and provide more opportunities for Wilcox said, but they anticipate
the residents of the mid-valley and 3,000 to 5,000 at the festival's first
further south, outing.

and most of all her love for her
family.
Edna loved poetry, "The
Touch of the Master's Hand" was
one of her favorites and she want-
ed it shared.
"Whenever your life is out of
tune, and no melody soothes your
soul, look to the Master whose
gentle touch will bless you and
make you whole.
"Like an old violin with so
little worth, a life may be far less
than grand, but may be trans-
formed in a moment, you see,
by The Touch of The Master's
Hand."
Edna is survived by her son
Michael and his wife Pamela Gar-
ber; daughter Marilyn and her
husband Steven Richards; sister
Lelia Cole; grandchildren: Traci
and Brent Voile of Seattle, Wash.,
Carly and Jason Dolan of Ukiah,
Calif., Tina and Dave Melby and
Matthew Garber of Sweet Home;
12 great-grandchildren: Austin,
Lucas, and Makenna Melbye,
Koby, Brayden, Dayne, Syndelle,
and Taivyn Garber, Max and Ma-
son Voile, and Sadie and Cash
Dolan.
She was preceded in death by
her husband of 58 years, Wayne
Garber; baby daughter Marjorie
Lou Garber; brother Melvin More-
head; great-granddaughter Shaina
Tyler Nicole Garber and her par-
ents, James and Vera Morehead.
A private burial was held

wanted donations to Evergreen
Hospice.

Obituary
Edna Lanore Garber, 89, of
Sweet Home passed away Satur-
day. She was born in Sweet Home
to Jim and Vera (Coulter) More-
head.
Edna was raised on the prop-
erty her father bought from his
grandparents, John and Rachel
Galbrith in 1912. She lived her
entire life on the Ames Donation
Land Claim.
Edna was a native of Sweet
Home and attended grade school
and high school, graduating in
1941. She was a member of the
Sweet Home High School Band,
playing the clarinet, and Edna also
played in a trio at many commu-
nity functions.
She worked at White's Cafe
and Columbia River Log Scaling
as the office secretary. A volunteer
in the Air Force as a Ground Ob-
• server, Edna spotted planes during
World War II and was promoted to
supervisor during the three years
she served.
Edna married Wayne Garber
in February of 1944. She worked
at the Sweet Home Church of
Christ as a Deaconess, playing
piano for services, teaching chil-
dren's Sunday school classes,
and arranging funeral dinners. In
the later years Wayne and Edna
took care of the lawn work at the
church. They were both baptized
members of the church.
They owned Garber Logging
for years, where Edna was the
bookkeeper. Her hobbies included
keeping a magnificent yard, sce-
nic photography, and she made
each of her four grandchildren
keepsake memory books. She also
enjoyed elk hunting and camping
with friends, trips to the ocean,
PaM
and Girls Club has exclusive rights
to sell bottled water at the festival,
Wilcox said, and The River Center
will operate a food drive: The
Albany American Legion, Post
10, will host the Sunday pancake
breakfast as a fund-raising toot to
help rebuild. The Legion Hall was
destroyed by arson. The Boys and
Girls Clubs of the Greater Santiam
also will provide showers during
the event. A shuttle will be available
from the campground to the club in
Lebanon.
Misting tents and alternative
water access also is available to help
keep concertgoers healthy during
the expected hot weather.
"It is a challenge," Wilcox said.
"It's crazy as with any first-year
event. Everybody sits back to see
how it comes together."
But it's drawing a lot of interest
from Corvallis to Sweet Home,
Wilcox said. And visitors are coming
from San Diego, Calif., to Chicago.
Ticket sales have been picking
up lately, Wilcox said. They started
selling in February, and it's been
surprising how well they've been
selling as publicity has increased.
Volunteers are still needed,
Wilcox said. The event has about
150, but organizers would love
to have 300. Volunteers may sign
up at the festival website, www.
harvestmoon2012.com or call Kim
Almasie at (541) 543-4062.
Vendors "are set for the 2012
event, Wilcox said, but anyone
