Ferris Fest per­form­ers enjoyed their oppor­tu­nity to play at Ferris State University this past Saturday.

A crowd cov­ered the quad on Saturday as var­i­ous musi­cal acts per­formed through­out the day. Students and com­mu­nity mem­bers enjoyed free food, free tat­toos and activ­i­ties, a dunk tank, and the chance to meet some of the acts and get their autograph.

Chuck Wicks, coun­try per­former at Ferris Fest, said, “It was awe­some play­ing at Ferris. I was con­cerned about the rain at first and thought I might only be play­ing to a crowd of three peo­ple, but I ended up play­ing to a big­ger crowd than I expected.”

Wicks went on to say, “It was a great expe­ri­ence per­form­ing at Ferris and I want to come back.”

Mike Posner, rap and hip hop per­former at Ferris Fest, was very excited he was able to meet with stu­dents after his per­for­mance and he gave out hugs to every­one. He said over­all, per­form­ing here was a lot of fun.

Despite the ques­tion­able weather, Ferris Fest 2010 seems to have been well received by Ferris stu­dents and the community.
