James Lawn Party 199 Lawn Party, an annual event, attracts more than 9,000 attendees who come for the music, drink, friends, and fun. Underneath all that, money earned from the Lawn Party helps out those in need. On Saturday, September 27th 1997, 115 pledges and brothers of Delta Sigma Phi pulled together to host the 34th annual Lawn Party. Held at Trinity Farms across from the State Fairgrounds for the 5th year, the popularity of Lawn Party attracted over 9,000 attendees, who come for the music, | drink, friends, and fun. The performers at this year ' s party included Leftover Salmon, Drivin ' N ' Cryin ' , and Sister Hazel, who all| had their own tour busses. The members of Sister Hazel had a concert in Tennessee on the night of Lawn Party, so the brothers of Delta Sig had a plane chartered for them to make it on time. Lawn Party was promoted by Satellite Promotions this year. Tickets were $12 and t-shirts were $10. Approximately $18,400 was raised by Lawn Party this year, 100% of which goes to charities within the Raleigh area. Of this money $7,000 went to the Frankie Lemmon School. Delta Sig also donated money to Wheelchair Athletes, as recently, an alumnus was in an accident and stricken to a wheelchair. Thanks to Jimmy Hansen of Delta Sigma Phi, for his help on this story.
