Hagerman and the surrounding areas got an economic boost this weekend.

Thanks to the annual Thousand Springs Festival.

It's the festival's 14th year...and it brings in thousands of people from all over the state.

Organizers say that equals big bucks for the local economy...

Carter Wilson: Musical Director:

"There's a lot of people that come from all over southern Idaho, parts of Nevada, Montana, and Wyoming for this festival."

This weekend Wilson says the festival saw over three thousand people.

He says it's a great economic boost for the area...and he can't wait to be apart of it next year.
