Come Rain or Shine, The New Brighton Was a Huge Success
The sporadic rain was not enough to put a damper on the citizens and vendors of New Brighton. The people came out today to eat, drink, and be merry with food and beer staples such as Petrucci Brothers Brewing, Curbside Cocina, Big Rock Deli, Papa Dukes Gyros, and much more!
Beaver County Radio’s own Frank Sparks and Matt Drzik held down the fort at our remote broadcast. The New Brighton citizens enjoyed live music while they shopped at booths offering mural paintings, hand-crafted jewelry, toys and much, much more! Democratic Green Party representative Darcelle Slappy even made an appearance to meet with the public.
New Brighton rung in the Autumn Equinox right this year, certainly something you are not going to want to miss next year!
