WEST CHESTER TWP. - Oldiesfest comes to Union Centre this summer, but Freedom Fest won't be back.

WGRR-FM's popular oldies concert, held at Butler County Fairgrounds in Hamilton the last four years, will be part of the expanded three-day Union Centre Bash August 13-15

The Downtown Council, a division of the Greater Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce, will book the Sunday Oldiesfest acts, says Peter Zolnowski, WGRR-FM (103.5) program director. The Downtown Council also will hire the Saturday night rock headliner.

While Union Centre Boulevard rocks, the township has canceled the annual two-day Freedom Fest and fireworks at Voice of America Park because of budget constraints and a lack of sponsorships. It's too late to find $30,000 in underwriting, even if the festival were moved to late summer, said Catherine Stoker, trustees president.

"We've lost too much time," she said.
