Concert @ Negley

Saturday, July 5 was another hot night in Lemoyne for the annual Concert @ Negley. For the third year in a row, the RCWS was on hand with cold water for attendees. With a booth placement in between Zero Day Brewing and Lavender Acres Winery, it was a busy night.

As a result of our effort, the club is able to make a $300 donation to the Rotary Foundation to support RI's global water initiatives.
