Antietamfest: Community Bands Together for Flood Relief with Music, Raffles, and Family Fun



"Antietamfest," a special event organized by Ian Peck and Will Wagner of the band Modern Luxe, will be held this weekend to raise funds for the Antietam School District affected by July's flooding. Initially planned as a small concert, it expanded into a three-band festival.

The Reading Liederkranz has donated the venue, and the community is actively supporting the cause. The festival, featuring music, vendors, raffles, and kid-friendly activities, will take place on Sunday at the Reading Liederkranz in Lower Alsace Township from 12 to 5 pm.

The aim is to help the community recover from the flood damages.
