Greetings!

Our biggest festival of the year, Retro on Roscoe is just two weeks away!! We hope that you all will come out and enjoy the music, antique car show, food, and fun! We have some fantastic new additions to the festival this year, so keep reading to find out more!

 

Volunteer for Retro on Roscoe!
We need your help!

 

The 16th Annual Retro on Roscoe is just around the corner, and we need 400 VOLUNTEERS to help us run this wonderful festival. Retro runs from noon to 10pm on Saturday and Sunday, August 6 and 7. PLEASE volunteer for a 2-hour (or more!) block of time by using this link to go to our VolunteerSpot site. For the first time, volunteers will be able to select their time AND post. First come, first serve! It's a great way to contribute to our wonderful neighborhood. As most of you know, Retro raises nearly the money that funds RVN outreach, school donations, family events and more! It's not only a good cause; it is great fun! Plus, you will receive entry to the fest and your 2011 Retro on Roscoe t-shirt to wear with pride! (Pssst...you might even get a beer ticket!) With your help, we are looking forward to a great event!

New Diaper Changing Station at Retro!D

On the Go Chicago presents a Family Aid Station   

  

Parents at this year's Retro on Roscoe Festival will no longer have to search out a place to change their wee ones diapers.  On the Go Chicago will be hosting a Diaper Changing/Family Aid Station in the kids area (Roscoe and Bell).  In addition to a clean and dedicated place to change your little fest goers diaper, on the go Chicago will also be providing sunscreen, band-aids, wipes, hand sanitizer and other fest essentials.

We hope to see you at Retro!
