The Raven is an annual event that helps raise funds to rebuild the playground at Chase Park and to benefit Community Building Tutors, a program that provides free tutoring to youth at Chase Park.

This summer festival takes place in early June, when the community gathers to enjoy a weekend of live entertainment, local restaurants, and area artisans. A full schedule of kid-friendly activities — including live entertainment, jumpies, a petting zoo, face painting and more — is also available.

Pictures and schedules from The Raven 2008 and 2009 are available online. Stay tuned for more information on The Raven 2010 (to be scheduled).
