These shirts are a limited run, get them at the Ugly Christmas Sweater Party Friday night.

This Saturday in Rockford is the 3rd annual Breakfast and Blankets event.

The Fatherhood Encouragement Project chooses needy neighborhoods in Rockford to help clean up the community followed by a block party.
