Happy DelFest, the most delightful time of the year! The DelFest Foundation raffle is getting underway, and our friends at Del’s Army are on site beside the main entrance to the music meadow. They’re set up collecting food donations, hosting a silent auction, and selling these phenomenal 2026 t-shirts. Just like in our online store, all proceeds from the shirt sales and silent action go to the Western Maryland Foodbank.

It’s DelFest week and the DelFest Foundation is so excited to celebrate with everyone in Cumberland! Once the festival begins you can help the foundation give back to the community all year, by participating in three ways: purchasing delicious beverages, tipping generously at the beverage stations, and testing your luck by buying raffle tickets. Here are just some of the fantastic prizes up for grabs for 2026. You can find out more about the foundation at our website linked below.

We’re one week away from DelFest so let’s celebrate with the release of our final throwback shirt, Del's Special Reserve! The 2019 Del's Army design celebrated Del's 80th year with a jug of good ol' mountain dew, and now you can reserve your own special edition shirt at the link in the comments.

Every sale supports the Western Maryland Foodbank, and don’t forget to bring canned goods for the food drive at the festival!

When devastating flooding hit the area last May, just before DelFest 2025, the DelFest Foundation decided that 100% of the tip money from the festival’s beverage sales would be devoted to flood relief projects. Your generosity totaled a whopping $28,468, all of which was donated to local organizations focused on rebuilding and resiliency efforts.

Recently our board members visited Westernport to see the recovery progress in person. We toured the Potomac Volunteer Fire Station and saw their new UTV which was purchased with the foundation’s donation. The volunteers have completed the rebuilding of their facility and are working to customize the new vehicle which will greatly help their ability to serve the community going forward.

The Allegany County Library’s resilience was most impressive. We toured what remains of their original Westernport building which was devastated by floodwaters, and then visited their temporary location which will remain open as they continue to raise funds to rebuild the important community center. A link to their ongoing GiveButter campaign is in the comments below.

Happy “May the Fourth” but more importantly, happy DelFest month! You can be a force for good at the festival by supporting the beverage stations, tipping generously, and testing your luck at the raffle! This is the way to help the DelFest Foundation fund our year-round charitable giving.

It's and time for the second design in the Deltopia Throwback Store!

This one is from 2024 when Del's Army solidified Del as a "Real American Hero" with their G.I. Joe inspired design.

Now you can be a DelFest hero by purchasing a T-shirt at our Bonfire store to benefit the Western Maryland Foodbank, link in the comments.
