Woodstock 50 Appeal Denied

An appeal to hold Woodstock 50 at Vernon Downs has been denied.

The Town of Vernon Planning Board turned down the appeal Tuesday night, reinforcing a previous denial from the town's codes enforcement office according to CNYHomepage.com. 

Plans to move the 3 day festival to Vernon Downs came after the original plan to host Woodstock 50 at Watkins Glen International fell apart earlier this summer.

A member of the Woodstock 50 promotional group told WFXV that they planned to reapply for a permit on Wednesday morning. Meanwhile, WIBX has learned promoters are still scrambling to try and find a CNY venue that could host the event.
