Cloverdale's Old Time Fiddle Festival concluded its 37th year Sunday at the Citrus Fairgrounds.
The two-day festival had nearly met its end after city officials announced last year that they could no longer fund the event.
However, the festival was revived after several donors stepped up to keep the music playing.
Their efforts were abuzz over the weekend during the revamped event. Musicians filled the Citrus Fairgrounds auditorium, rooms and hallways with not only fiddlers but bluegrass bands, jam circles and all sorts of old-timey players.
