DETAILS :
This will mark the fourth year for this early season springtime concert at Camp Zoe. In years past we called it "ZoeJam", or "EarthJam", or simply the spring concert. Bands that have played this springtime event in the past have included : George Clinton & P-Funk, Mofro, Hot Tuna, Garaj Mahal, Papa Mali, Karl Denson, Jerry Joseph, Vince Herman, etc....... Last year we went real low key and only ran the Schwag band. This year we are coming back with a big production, a huge circus tent, top-notch entertainment, full staff with medical & security, and a strong zest for life. Vince Herman & Great American Taxi are coming back this year for the full weekend. Many of you probably remember Vince from playing with the band LEFTOVER SALMON as well as playing the Zoe spring event a few years ago with his "Taxi" band. This year we are having a reggae party on the Thursday night for early arrivals. This will feature Joseph Isarael with his reggae band and will cost an additional $10 on top of the weekend price for arriving a day early on Thursday.
Camp Zoe is a 370 acre privately owned campground located in a valley of the Ozark Hills of southern central Missouri. Beaches, caves, bluffs, and swimmin' holes line the spring-fed stream that runs through the middle of the campground. Zoe is a former youth camp that is surrounded by 90,000 acres of private timber reserves and national park property. This is the 12th season of Schwagstock festivals and the 17th year of The Schwag. Camp Zoe has hosted twenty Schwag festivals over the last four years with a cumulative attendance of over 100,000 people. There are five Schwag events in 2008. Schwagstock 33 in May of 2007 drew over 7500 people.
