Posted

Hundreds filled the street along Park Avenue in Rockville Centre’s downtown business district this weekend, to partake in an afternoon of food, fun, and shopping.

The annual Eat, Shop, Rock event is hosted each year by the Rockville Centre Chamber of Commerce, with the goal of bringing the community together for the afternoon.

This year’s event included two stages for live dance and musical performances including bands from the School of Rock, a transportable bowling alley, an inflatable bounce castle, and dozens of fall sales from local consignment shops and boutiques.

There was also a mobile unit with Mount Sinai Hospital, which supplied fairgoers with free Covid-19 vaccines and booster shots, the RVC Volunteer Fire Department set up blood pressure monitors, and members of the Lion’s Club helped raise money for Mr. B’s inclusive playground by selling memorial bricks.
