You are invited to participate with the boaters at Rosston Eddy Marina for the Blessing of the Boats THIS Saturday, July 4th at 10:30 AM. Bring a covered dish and enjoy brunch on the esplanade. But that's not all folks--later that evening there will be a raft-off on the Allegheny River near Ford City to watch the Heritage Day Fireworks which are scheduled to begin 9:30ish. Most of the boats will leave REM around 7 pm. Now, this is not just a raft-off, it's a "Rosston Eddy Marina Raft-Off". You will need lines (fore and aft) tied to your boat, plenty of fenders out AND bring your favorite appetizer to share. Does this sound like a party or what? Remember-"THE SUN SHINES LONGER" at Rosston Eddy Marina!
