When you think of Rosefest, you probably think of the Rose Parade that draws over 10,000 people to cheer on local groups and marching bands. Or perhaps you think of Party in the Park at Central Park—the bouncy houses, petting zoo, and fireworks lighting up the night sky. But if you're looking for a night out away from the noise and an opportunity to make an impact on the community, consider Taste of Rosefest.
