First Taste of Rogers Park - Coming Soon
Inquiries about the Taste of Rogers Park:
Who is invited: The Taste of Rogers Park was envisioned by Mark Finley, the Rogers Park Chamber of Commerce's Events Coordinator. The vision the Chamber created is to bring together businesses, organizations, institutions, and residents together in one setting to have fun, have laughs, work on business... but most importantly of all, to unify Rogers Park. As a result, everyone is invited to this grand event.
What is the Taste of Rogers Park: The Taste of Rogers Park is a signature event, created by the
Rogers Park Chamber of Commerce. We are hoping to have 60 different vendors,
plus a main stage featuring national and local recording artists. We are also
in the process of coordinating meeting times to have community leaders speak
about Rogers Park at our event.
Where is it located: The Rogers Park Chamber of Commerce is
working with Loyola Park Advisory Council to try and host the Taste of Rogers
Park at Loyola Beach
Why are you putting together the Taste of Rogers Park: We are putting together the Taste of Rogers Park as part of our goal to unify Rogers Park. There is so much history here, that we feel the need to rebuild and reclaim our culture, as well as our heritage.
When is the first Taste of Rogers Park: The current goal is to have our first
Taste of Rogers Park in 2013.
How can I help? It is very easy to help with the first
Taste of Rogers Park. We have two monthly meetings on the second and fourth
Saturday of the month at 5pm. Quest Network Services, located at 7301 N.
Sheridan Road has been a great help by giving us the space to work and host our
meetings.
Other Information:
The
Taste of Rogers Park will provide the opportunity to all local businesses;
banks, restaurants, community organizations, small businesses, and not for
profits to show Rogers Park what they have to offer, whether it be by selling
food, having informational packages lined up on the tables, or by just being there
and available to talk. A part of the reason Loyola
Park was chosen as our location is due
to the park being near for children to play, and the beach being a great place
to host a Beer Garden
MFN
LIVE: Broadcast Network will be recording this event and posting it online,
while the event is going! There will be many people putting this together such

will get to speak, it'll be an event to remember!
Already,
we are having a great amount of interest in people participating as a vendor,
as a band playing on our stage, so contact us soon to get on our list!
