Winter Isn't Even Here & We're Already Talking Riverbend 2010

We haven't even celebrated Thanksgiving this year and we're already getting Riverbend news...

The Friends of the Festival unveiled the Riverbend 2010 poster Monday.

Corporate pins are also on sale... They're available starting in quantities of 100 at $24 each.

The 2010 event celebrates 30 years of music.

Organizers say the health and growth of Riverbend is great for the Scenic City... and the image they choose to represent it must be carefully selected.

Karen Shostak with the Friends of the Festival says, "It's the face of our festival and it's really recognized not just in Chattanooga, but as it relates to other festivals and things that we compete against."

And we have the first Riverbend acts to report.

Charlie Daniels has been tentatively booked to close this summer's festival on Saturday, June 19th.

Blues singer Janiva Magness has been booked for a side stage on Wednesday night.
