"It's been a bad economy the last couple years and people don't have the money to go out and spend to pay and camp and pay to come into the events, so we do it all for free," said Miller. "The whole staff is strictly volunteers. We don't get paid for this, we don' make money off it, we do it strictly for the community and the love of the sport."
The Original Sandfest 2010 runs now until Sunday, July 4. For a complete list of weekend activities and vendors, log onto www.originalsandfest.com
