Service Leagues Riverfest Raises More to Give Bonnie Spears of Canton, current President of the Service League of Cherokee County, accepted a check on behalf of the Service League from the 2015 Riverfest Committee in the amount of $86,288.87 at the organizations recent monthly meeting. The check was presented by Riverfest Committee Chairwoman, Barbara Jacoby, of Waleska. The Service League of Cherokee County and its Riverfest Committee are so grateful for our communitys generosity. Sponsors, exhibitors and volunteers worked together to overcome the challenges, and guests braved the rain to help us raise funds for our communitys children in need. Every dollar donated and every hour volunteered helps make a difference in the life of a child says Ms. Jacoby. The funds raised during this event will be used throughout the upcoming year to provide assistance with everything from health care and eyeglasses for children in need, to rent and utilities for their families.
