Hi Carvers, 

We're sorry to tell you this news - my  family and I have decided to 
cancel Carve-Fest 2006. It was scheduled for  Labor Day weekend in 
Faribault, MN. 

As many of you know, we  discovered that I have cancer again. The type 
of cancer I have this time is  quite aggressive, and it had spread. The 
tumors have been removed, but there  could still be lingering cancer 
cells. For this reason I will be having two  very aggressive kinds of 
chemo beginning soon. This treatment will continue  for six months. I 
just won't be able to put much time and energy into  planning and 
marketing Carve-Fest. We don't want to have a festival that is  only 
done half as well as it could be, so it is better to reschedule for  
another year. After I have kicked this cancer out of my life 
completely,  we will have a huge, well-done festival!! 

We hope that this doesn't  inconvenience you! 

Please feel free to send this message to anyone who  may have been 
planning to attend - we appreciate your help in spreading the  word. 

Have a great day! 

Marnie Whillock
