Last weekend’s Rockin’ for Relief — a live concert to benefit flood victims in our surrounding communities — raised $2,889.78. With a matching $2,500 donation from Modern Woodmen of America, the proceeds total $5,389.78.

Between 300 and 350 people attended the event that included live music, kids games, a live auction and barbecued food.

The event was sponsored by Saint Mary’s Volunteer Services and Office of Campus Ministry.
