Rib Fest 2024
What's it about?
The Eden Prairie Noon Rotary’s Rib Fest fundraiser is held annually in June in conjunction with the Minnesota Festival of Jazz on the Prairie (featuring seven area big bands), which is sponsored by the City of Eden Prairie. This event is the major fundraiser for our club.
Boom Island Beer! We're proud to partner with one of our fine local breweries, Boom Island Brewing. Several of their delicious brews will be available for purchase for $7 per beer.
What does it support?
The profits from the event support local and international service projects of the Eden Prairie Noon Rotary including:
-
My Book Day: a literacy program where all Eden Prairie first graders experience a celebration of reading and receive their own hard-cover book.
-
Onward Eden Prairie: provides housing and services for young people experiencing homelessness.
-
Student Scholarships: supporting local students in their educational pursuits.
-
Let's Go Fishing: provides fishing and boating excursions for seniors, veterans, and youth.
