The second annual Rhythm & Ribs (R&R) event was another huge success! Despite a few rain drops, 1,100 people got to Eat, Drink & Rock the night away ... for Education! Party goers savored ribs from Ethyl’s Smokehouse and Mannino’s Market and enjoyed chicken from our new neighbor Chick-fil-A ... all while listening to the sweet sounds of the St. Charles West Jazz Ensemble and Smash Band.
Highlights included an activity area with face painting, games and crafts, as well as a raffle table with prizes like a BBQ grill and accessories, Cardinals tickets, concert tickets and much more. This year’s event raised more than $43,000. All proceeds will benefit scholarships and academic enhancements. Special thanks goes to the remarkable SCC staff, event sponsors and more than 150 volunteers for making the event
possible, to the entertainment who kept the crowd dancing and to vendors like, Dunkin Donuts, Quintessential Catering, Krey Distributing, Red Robin & Terra Firma, USA who nourished the party goers into the night. Missed this year’s event? Mark your calendars for next year’s R&R, planned for May 2012, which promises to be the ‘Best Block Party’ around!
