Supporting a Great Cause

This festival isn’t just about feasting and fun; it also aims to raise awareness for Rotary’s Camp Florida.

The funds raised during the festival will not only support the camp but also help various local and international charities, including Everyday Blessings Inc., The SPARK Initiative, and Family Promise.

Key Sponsors and Activities

The event is made possible thanks to the generous sponsorship of Rivard Buick GMC. If you’ve got kids in tow, make sure to check out the designated kids’ zone, complete with a bounce house sponsored by Reed & Reed. It’s sure to be a hit among the younger attendees!
