A Sip of Summer: Hard Cider Festival actually takes place a few days into fall, but that’s neither here nor there. The point is, it’s a festive afternoon sipping sweet and tart adult beverages in the park while listening to live music, eating great grub, playing games and browsing the wares of local artists and crafters. And it’s a fundraiser to boot — benefiting Wild Souls Ranch! So grab your designated driver and head to Rohner Park on Saturday, Sept. 24 from 1 to 5 p.m. for all the fun: Live music by Jacki & the Jollies, Wild Abandon and The Critics, art and craft vendors, food trucks, lawn games, kids zone, unlimited cider tasting and a commemorative glass.
