Nearly all of the proceeds from ticket sales go to the band each Saturday night. A dedicated team of volunteers does the work that makes each concert season a success. Volunteers book the bands, staff the kitchen, set up the auditorium, sell the tickets and manage the sound. Nevertheless, it still takes money to put on a show.
Additional support for the performances is managed by the Lucketts Bluegrass Foundation, whose volunteers:
- Coordinate with Loudoun County and the Department of Parks and Recreation
- Manage finance, accounting, taxes, and other administrative functions required of non-profit corporations
- Purchase food and supplies
- Pay royalties to various Performance Rights Organizations for the use of copyrighted music
- Purchase and service equipment
- Record, edit, and catalog performances for Bluegrass Country’s Editor’s Pick program
The foundation also supports educational programs and the health and welfare of musicians in times of need.
