Das Festival organizers ecstatic with weekend's turnout

Turnout for the three-day Das Festival of Kendall exceeded expectations, according to the organization’s president. 

Estimates for the June 13-15 attendance runs as high as 8,500, Das Festival President Dave parent said. 

“I’m going to say it was at least 100% better than what we thought it was going to be,” Parent said Monday, just hours after the final beers had been poured, pretzels had been sold and band notes had faded away.
