A permit to move Woodstock 50 to\nVernon Downs hit another obstacle Tuesday, when the Town of Vernon & Oneida\nCounty officials denied a permit for the concert at Vernon Downs, because they\nhad failed to supply mandated information in their application, had no specific\nplans for law enforcement or for emergency services, and because the application\nwas filed too close to the time of the planned event. Woodstock 50 was originally scheduled to be\nheld in Watkins Glen, several issues & lawsuits kept the concert from being\nheld there. Time is running out as the\nconcert was scheduled to be held August 16th through the 18th this year, on the\n50th anniversary of the original Woodstock festival in Bethel in 1969.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
