DuFine and Codikow haven't exhaled just yet, but they expect Jamarama to be an ongoing event and start making money next year. For now, it has no real competition in the baby's-first-festival market.

What has rendered them so friendless? Only once does someone call to inquire why they haven't been around. The mailman doesn't appear. No one drops by to ask the kids to play.
