It's me again; the forever proud Rochesterite coming to tell you what we have for goings on in the next week in Rochester. I have to say that even though some of these are repeats it looks to be a fun week again. Lots of bands (that’s my age) and tons of kids’ stuff, even some Bridge for those of you who like to play (kinda wish I knew how!) Get out and enjoy, grab a friend or three! Check back with us again next week to see what else we can find to do! If you have any questions just send us an e-mail or give us a call. Happy Thursday all!
