Burning River Fest 2010: Good Cheer. Good Cause. Good Beer.

Every summer, people from all over the Great Lakes region raise a pint at the Burning River Fest to salute the “watershed moment” that raised a new level of eco-consciousness—the 1969 burning of the Cuyahoga River. This year’s party will feature live music, fresh food from local farms and eateries, educational environmental exhibits and a special appearance by Great Lakes Brewing Company’s Christmas Ale

Proceeds benefit the Burning River Foundation, a local non-profit organization that provides resources for the sustainable future of our waterways. Join us at Burning River Fest on July 24th and 25th at the historic Coast Guard Station on Whiskey Island. Help celebrate the Spirit of Giving and spark a new level of environmental awareness.
