With many towns and villages needing to make financial cuts to their budgets, Downers Grove is no different. Forced to make cuts and become more fiscally responsible to the taxpayers, Downers Grove decided to cancel the traditional Heritage Festival that has been the mainstay of summertime festivals. Relying on the idea that not for profits would be a great alternative to take over the planning and implementation of festivals, the Rotary Club of Downers Grove stepped up and will keep the summertime tradition alive. While steeped in many traditions, the Rotary Club of Downers Grove stepped up and has been working diligently since the end of 2009 to produce a festival that will cater to the residents of Downers Grove and surrounding suburbs. The Rotary GroveFest will be held July 15th -18th in the downtown area of Downers Grove. While the scope of the festival is greatly downsized, it still offers many of the attractions that are warmly welcomed by our community.
