The Rooster Walk Music and Arts Festival was created in memory of two of our best childhood friends who passed away while still in their 20s: Edwin "the Rooster" Penn and Walker Shank. This festival celebrates life and the notion that you shouldn't waste a moment of it.
Mission:
We're happy to report that the mission has been a great success. We've raised more than $270,000 for local and regional charities, with much of that going to the “Penn-Shank Memorial Scholarship Fund” for outstanding MHS seniors.
Rooster Walk is being embraced for its tourism and quality of life values, playing a small but growing role in the area's social fabric. And we couldn't be prouder.
