FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CARBONDALE -

The City of Carbondale invites you join us for Mayor Harvey’s CommuniTEA Social hour, July 18, from 11:30 AM- 2 PM at the Carbondale Civic Center!

Come beat the heat and make fresh connections with non-profits and community focused partners in the region while enjoying hors d’oeuvres and iced tea. This event is a great opportunity for non-profits and community members to get to know one another.   This annual community event continues to grow in exciting ways year after year. A new addition to this years’ event is that we will be collecting non-perishable items at the door for the Feed My Sheep Community Kitchen and the Good Samaritan House.
