Get Ready to Rock: 2nd Annual Henderson SummerFest for a Great Cause
99.5 WKDQ is a proud sponsor of the upcoming Henderson Summerfest. Returning to Western Kentucky for its second year in a row, Summerfest, presented by First Federal Savings Bank, will raise money for a good cause.
2nd Annual SummerFest Headed to Henderson
There is no doubt that we love a good outdoor festival around here at the radio station but when you add in live music, delicious food offerings, and the opportunity to give back to local charities, we are 100% here for it!
Three Friends and a Vision
The vision of three friends and Henderson residents, SummerFest will feature live music with a focus on raising awareness and money for area non-profits. For 2023, Audubon Kids Zone will be the beneficiary of the annual event. While Summerfest is completely free to attend, the public is encouraged to make donations through the SummerFest website which will then go to Audubon Kids Zone.
What To Expect
In its second year, the Henderson SummerFest will offer up something for everyone. From the activities planned for the kids to the local delicious food options, and the vendor booths too, this is one event you don't want to miss. There will even be a beer garden for those over 21 and an incredible night of live music!
