During

the Summer

of 1967,

a major

change in

music

and

culture

occurs.

The

50s and 60s

style of

rock’n roll

is out

and...

acid rock

is in.

Guests from

the Past...

Don't know?

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is time for

us all

to stand

and

cheer

for the doer,

the achiever,

the one who

recognizes

the challenge

and does

something

about it.
