With so many of our traditional community events being canceled for the summer of 2020, a collaborative group has decided to offer an all-inclusive City Celebration that maintains social distancing and follows the Minnesota Department of Health Guidelines. The Rochester Community Celebration will take place August 20th – 23rd, 2020. It is an event created to include all and give back a positive event to our greater Rochester community. It is the mission of the collaborative group to improve and promote community relationships through this event.
