. Everything was was tidy and in order at Bethel Woods. The tents were full with vendors of all sorts ranging from food and wellness options, to beer, fast food trucks, and crafts and jewelry, and even a zip line. But the most popular thing was free. Pictured are three of the tens of thousands of pilgrims who have made their way to the Woodstock monument during the course of this 50th anniversary year.

Not to be outdone, The Catskill Distillery -- located across the road on State Rt. 17B from the entrance to Bethel Woods -- put out a fine welcome for locals and pilgrims, including a surprise, free performance on Saturday by 1969 Woodstock Concert performer Melanie.

Woodstock 1969 performer Melanie seen her with her children performing under the lights on the Yasgur Road Reunion’s stage. During the performance she reminisced, narrating her life before, during, and after Woodstock, 1969.

The historical marker right outside of the entrance to the Bethel Woods Concert site and Museum was a busy place for people to meet, greet, and be photographed. Pictured are two concert goers unknown to one another who decided to pose together.

Pictured at the Yasgur Road Reunion Drum Circle are: L-R 1969 Woodstock event producer Michael Lang, his son Laz Lang, Rona Elliot, Lang’s community relations Director for Woodstock, 69, Woodstock sound engineer Bill Hanley, his son, Joe Hanley, and Zach Howard, co-producer (along with his mother, Jeryl Abramson) of the annual reunion and whose family now owns the Yasgur Homestead.

One of the well-known team of Woodstock 1969 event producers, Michael Lang made his way to Bethel last weekend. He is pictured here at the annual Yasgur Road Reunion, a weekend of crafts, music, and camping held at the Yasgur Road campground and concert site off of State Rt. 17B. This event commemorating the 1969 concert, is held at the former homestead of Max and Miriam Yasgur, whose property was used for the first Woodstock concert.

Known as the man who gave the Woodstock Concert its sound, recording and sound engineer, Bill Hanley is interviewed outside of the Yasgur family farm house at the Yasgur Road Production’s campground and concert site.
