People of all ages enjoyed the Rotary GroveFest in the heart of Downers Grove this past June. Featuring rides, beer garden, live music (and more), the event was a testament to the community’s spirit.

Hosted by the Rotary Club of Downers Grove, GroveFest is a powerful force for good, redistributing all profits from the festival to many local, regional, national and international causes.

This includes 27 not-for-profit volunteer organizations that support causes in and around Downers Grove, making a significant impact on our community.
