40th anniversary looming

It was over a long Fourth of July weekend in 1971 that the Universal Life Church “picnic” took place at North Idaho’s Farragut State Park.

It was actually a multi-band rock concert and celebration of what someone once described as “a morally casual attitude.”

Some who were there say they’ll never forget it. Others admit that they spent a fair amount of time in a cloud of smoke and things got a bit hazy.

Rock on.
