Dan Baglione Service Award


Dan Baglione was one of the founding members of the Black Swamp Arts Festival and served in the role of Site and Logistics Chair for the first five years of the Festival. He had an enthusiastic, energetic, and inventive spirit, and his vision laid the groundwork for the Site and Logistics Committee. Dan lived graciously and courageously with cancer until his death in 2002. The Dan Baglione Service Award was established to recognize an outstanding volunteer, supporter, or advocate for their service to the Black Swamp Arts Festival.
