  • What You Need To Know About Music and Camping This Summer At Bethel Woods

    Bethel Woods is the site of the original 1969 Woodstock Music and Arts Festival, just a short drive from here in New Jersey to New York’s Catskills region.

    With the current trend of camping and “glamping” — which accounted for approximately 32 percent of all leisure trips taken in 2022 — Bethel Woods has something brand new for the 2024 concert season – an amazing on-site camping experience.

    Just like the festival’s alumni once did, visitors can experience an unforgettable night of camping under the stars at the iconic site. The new state-of-the-art campground is designed to cater to a variety of preferences, featuring basic campsite amenities as well as luxurious glamping facilities.

    This morning on Jersey Magazine, we’re chatting with Eric Frances, the CEO of Bethel Woods Center for the Arts and he has all the details.

    About Didi

    Didi is just PERFECT! She is probably just over a year old and was surrendered to the shelter after her family could no longer keep her where they were living. The landlord said NO DOGS!
    Randolph Regional Animal Shelter
    Didi loves her toys!
    Poor Didi had been in the only home she had ever known, and couldn’t stay. Sunny and the Randolph crew stepped in to find her the perfect home. After all, she is a near-perfect dog. Didi is very friendly and likes meeting new people. The shelter has experienced her positive behavior with other dogs AND she is fine with cats as well! Didi also lived with children and is fine having little ones around. She is such a lovely girl. Didi really likes to play with toys, is easy on the leash (no pulling, lunging, barking) is housebroken, and really bonds quickly with humans. She’s a super, duper nice dog. And I don’t want to leave out how stunning she is to look at with her beautiful, expressive eyes, shiny coat, and sweet face.

    What’s The Process For Adopting Didi?
