 38th Rowayton River Ramble!
Saturday, July 19th, 11:00am–3:00pm
(rain date July 20th)
The 38-year tradition continues as the River Ramble Committee gets geared up for another successful event. This annual tradition brings the community together for a day of fun and festivity at one of our cherished landmarks, Pinkney Park. For kids, there are pony rides, a cake walk, face painting, water slides and the ever-popular dunk tank. Entertainment for the adults includes the Live Auction, an extensive Silent Auction of beautiful baskets and a wide variety of local craft vendors selling everything from art to Rowayton flip flops. Enjoy the famous raw bar, hamburgers, hot dogs or chili. Drinks include cold beer, sodas and juices. This year’s live entertainment will be provided by the Stacy Phillips band, a wonderful bluegrass band.
In addition to being fun-filled, the River Ramble is the RCA’s largest fundraiser and finances many of our community events, including the Memorial Day Parade, Fireworks, Soccer, Summer Music Festival, Swim Races, Halloween Celebration and the Nativity Pageant... to name a few. The Live and Silent Auctions at the River Ramble are critical to this important fundraising. The hard-working Auction Committee is seeking a diverse assortment of donations from local businesses and residents. Auction items range in value from vacation getaways, to gift certificates and donated professional services, so we encourage everyone to think creatively about how to participate. For more information on the auction contact Kat Curtin at 852-1587 or pkcurtin@optonline.net.
We encourage everyone to get involved in this fun and important summer highlight! Participating in the tradition will allow you to share a piece of Rowayton history and help support our community’s treasured events. Please contact River Ramble co-chairs Kat Curtin at pkcurtin@optonline.net or Andy Schadt at andrew.schadt@soluxe.com for more information on all the wonderful ways to help out. Thank you in advance for your support in making the 2008 River Ramble a success! |
