Havens performed an outstanding blend of his memorable renditions mixed with conversation and anecdotes from his life and many musical journeys. He was accompanied by his long-time back up band member, guitarist Walter Parks.

At the conclusion of the concert, Havens received an extended standing ovation from the appreciative crowd. Dodson presented Havens with a broom made by Historical Society President Robert Broach from broom corn grown in the property's community gardens and a CD made from an old reel-to-reel tape of the 1966 Hartwick College Concert. Dodson helped organize the Hartwick concert when he was President of the Freshman Class and those connections helped facilitate Saturday's memorable appearance. Two of Dodson's closest friends from his college days were on hand to share in this reunion with Havens including: Bruce Cameron from Windsor, NY, a special education teacher who is currently a member of the Hartwick College Alumini Association Board of Directors; and Dodson's former roommate Ron Klattenberg, now a City Councilman from Middletown, Conn.

Havens generously stayed for several hours following the performance to sign autographs and talk with fans new and old. The Killingworth Lions Club is the town's largest philanthropic organization, having donated almost $500,000 to worthy causes since 1971. They have committed the proceeds from the concert to the renovation of the "stone barn" on the Parmelee Property. The property is home to the community gardens and recent activity includes a dry stone walling workshop, several field clean-up days, trail blazing and the exterior restoration and painting of the Parmelee Farmhouse. www.killingworthtoday.com
