What an incredible day for the Hazleton Rotary Club! 
We are truly grateful to everyone who helped make our 2026 Wine & Beer Festival such a success. Thank you to our patrons, sponsors, donors, vendors, volunteers, and musical bands for your tremendous support.
We do this because of you and because of the opportunity it gives us to give back to the organizations and programs that make our community stronger.
Your support allows Hazleton Rotary to continue living our mission of Service Above Self and making a meaningful difference throughout Greater Hazleton.
Thank you for being part of another successful Wine & Beer Festival. We could not do it without you!  See you at #W&B2027!
Paul Oswald, Hazleton Rotary Club President
