The annual Cheat River Festival is a celebration of the rebirth of the Cheat River watershed. Cheat Fest is Friends of the Cheat‘s annual fundraiser which helps us advance our watershed projects and supports the organization’s administrative costs. Rain or shine, Cheat Fest is always a good time!
From 5:30pm ’till 10:00pm on Friday, May 5th, and 11:30am ’till 11:30pm on Saturday, May 6th, the festival grounds in Albright, West Virginia will once again transform into a haven for boaters, music lovers, and families. Bands from all over Appalachia will entertain crowds with live music, while Fest goers browse the Art Market, learn about other non-profit organizations that share the FOC vision, buy from a variety of food and merchandise vendors, and above all, help support Friends of the Cheat.
Another reason to love Cheat Fest: kids under twelve are free! Kids of all ages can congregate at the ever-growing Kid’s Tent from noon ’till 5:00pm on Saturday for a host of hands-on activities.
The Cheat River Festival is the primary fundraiser of the year for Friends of the Cheat. All profits from Cheat Fest are used to support our Education and Outreach efforts. Sadly, these programs are usually the first to experience funding shortfalls despite being one of the most important parts of FOC’s work.
Festival Sponsorships are a great way to support Friends of the Cheat and create exposure for your business
