JINGLE BELL ROCKAWAY FESTIVAL
At the Belle Harbor Yacht Club
 
A Fundraiser to Rebuild Rockaway Park

12PM – 5PM
 
Join FriendsOfRockaway.org in conjunction with FunBars.com & iAdventure.com
 this upcoming holiday season to raise money to rebuild Rockaway Park!
 
Hurricane Sandy left many without power, hot water & heat, and for some, without homes or hope. 
The Rockaway peninsula saw an 11ft ocean surge, which left practically every home with significant damage. 
Many homes have been completely destroyed. Flooded homes have limited time to fix the damage to avoid mold,
which can quickly make a home unlivable. It's a race these Rockaway homeowners are losing. With a lack of resources and supplies, as well as homeowners in shock, the process of remediation is moving too slow!
Only together can we help!

 
Our goal from this festival is to boost the morale of our neighbors, while raising funds to get resources and
services into the hands of those who need it most. Your support is appreciated and necessary to recovery.
 
The JINGLE BELL ROCKAWAY Festival will feature a variety of NY & NJ brews sponsored by Little Town NY & NJ, helping to support tri-state brewers hard hit by the storm. In addition, festivalgoers will get a sneak peak of NY & NJ’s newest BBQ sensation, House of ‘Que, featuring authentic Austin BBQ by renowned Pit-Master Mike Rodriguez. 
Come support displaced Rockaway bartenders while you enjoy live music, cold brews, and the best BBQ around.
Rockaway residents will receive free food and drink vouchers.
(ID with proof of residency required)
