Excerpt from article by Alyssa Noel, entitled: Festival bounces back after tragic 2009 edition:“I really liked, actually, when Kevin Costner was singing a song and dedicated it to Donna Moore. That was pretty classy,” said Tonya Sweetapple, who has been to the last three years of the festival with her husband Jeff.
