The festival, which started on Nov. 27, was scheduled to end Wednesday night. “We’ve had a couple of slow days,” Zent said. “Hopefully we can get to the $15,000 mark be fore Saturday night. If not, we will just have to do something else to make up for the addition al money that we didn’t get or make some program cuts.” All the money raised in the campaign is used to buy prog ramming through the Public Broadcasting System. The festival is held each year in August, March and Decem ber. The projected grand total for this year’s program is $50,000. Last year was difficult, Zent said. The total amount raised last year was $5,500 and $ 10,000 was raised the year before that, she said.
