There is, however, a surplus of camping spaces and the Festival Office
says it can accept more campers at Biloxi!
St. Petersburg:
All people who transferred to Florida last year have been
turned down this year, except obvious hardship situations. Anyone denied
a transfer with an important reason for attending in Florida which has
been overlooked should notify the Feast Office as quickly as possible through
their Festival advisor.
Lake of the Ozarks: More campers can be accepted at the Ozarks.
Saratoga Springs: Because of the crush of transfer requests for St. Pete
and Biloxi, which were granted on a first-come, first-serve basis, many
requests from this area will be processed in the assigned Saratoga Springs
area. With the Feast falling earlier this year, and temperatures warmer,
Saratoga promises to be a beautiful site.
International Sites: In addition to the sites in the United States, three
international sites are now closed to transfers: Penticton (Canada),
Lewiston {Canada) and Mexico. However, the Jerusalem Feast site and tour
is still open for reservations.

PLEASE READ TO YOUR CONGREGATIONS
Announcements recently placed in the July 9 edition of the Worldwide News
concerning chorale participants and services for the deaf at the Feast
of Tabernacles have received little response, so the Festival Office is
asking ministers to read them in services. For your convenience we have
reproduced both announcements as they appeared in the above mentioned
Worldwide News.
SIGN LANGUAGE AT THE FEAST
Sign language interpreting at the Feast of Tabernacles will be
available in both Norfolk, Va., and Fresno, Calif. Interpreting in
one or two other areas may be provided if enough interpreters
are available.
It is important that we hear from those wanting this serviee
�"Id also from interpreters and helpers.
Gerrie Leimbach has taken Lana Kreivis' position as coordina
tor in the Pasadena churches and will help coordinate the inter
preting for U.S. Feast sites. If you have contacted her. she will
forward the information to the Feast Office. If not. please write
