I know lots and lots of HAWK listeners are heading to Hunter Mountain, New York for the biggest and best country music festival in the Northeast, the Taste of Country Music Festival.  As I'm writing this post, I see the weather is going to be very good, with just a chance for scattered showers on Friday but Saturday and Sunday look perfect with sun and temperatures expected in the low to mid 70's.  Perfect concert weather!

If this is your first time at the Taste of Country Music Festival, there are a few necessities you need to pack.

Sunglasses~  As the weather is expected to be pretty sunny through most of the festival, sunglasses will be important.

Sunscreen~  Nothing will ruin your weekend more that getting a sunburn.  While this may be a great opportunity to work on that tan, nobody needs sunburn so get that SPF ready to go.

Change of clothes~  When talking to people last year, people always mention how a change of clothes, extra socks, extra shoes and a couple of jackets came in handy.  Pack rain gear just in case.

Have a great festival and don't forget to take lots of pics to share with us on the HAWK Facebook page. We would love that!
