The Mockingbird Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Phish fans in 1996 to generate charitable proceeds from the Phish community.
And since we're entirely volunteer – with no office, salaries, or paid staff – administrative costs are less than 2% of revenues! So far, we've distributed over $2 million to support music education for children – hundreds of grants in all 50 states, with more on the way.

But there's more context that needs to be reported here. This date reflected the end of the Rainbow Gathering in the Green Mountains. So Burlington, and Battery Park, was inundated with a very special group of people. Even for Burlington, there were a LOT of hippies dancing in Battery Park that evening.
Check out the Forest Service notes on the gathering here:
