Announcing the Kathy Janeczek Memorial Fund

We were all tremendously saddened by the passing of Kathy Janeczek in 2009, City Clerk of Kingston, who assisted us in the planning stages of the first festival.

As a devoted public servant and organizer, her spirit lives on in Kingston and will be present at all Drum Boogie Festivals.

The Kathy Janeczek Memorial Fund will be established in her name to benefit Cancer Research in NY’s Hudson Valley through the Drum Boogie Festival.
