The Bean Blossom Jamboree Foundation has announced another fund-raising initiative as the group continues its efforts to buy the historic campgrounds and festival site in southern Indiana that was once owned by Bill Monroe.

The foundation has launched the Bean Blossom Memorial Brick Wall Project located at the Bill Monroe Music Park & Campground in Bean Blossom, Indiana.

In keeping with the goal of the Foundation, it is offering bricks for “adoption” to fans of the numerous Bean Blossom music festivals and the Father of Bluegrass Music, Bill Monroe.

The memorial wall will be located near the famous Bean Blossom sign at the fork in the road near the music stage. The fully tax deductible price will be $100 a brick this year, and includes custom engraving worded by the brick donor.

Each brick will include three lines of text and 12 spaces per line. Once the wall goes up, the price will go up to $125 per brick due to the cost increase of engraving while the bricks are already in place.

The bricks will be set in available areas at random.

Order forms are available at the Foundation’s Web site. Or they can be mailed to:

BBJF
c/o Bill Monroe Music Park
5163 North State Road 135
Morgantown, IN 46160.

The Foundation has already received huge interest in the Bean Blossom Brick Wall project during the planning time and feels like fans and patrons of the park could also purchase these as for birthday, Christmas, Anniversary or other gifts.

The group’s goal is to take over operations of the Bill Monroe Music Park by the end of this year.
