Wiser Charitable Enterprises, Inc. is pleased to present VetRock 2013, an outdoor festival of music, food, arts and craft, and a celebration of those who have served in the United States military, who are charged with maintaining the freedoms we as Americans enjoy each and every day.

War Pic 1The goal of the VetRock Committee is to raise funds for the purposes of assisting our local Vietnam veterans.

VetRock will be an all-day, festival style rock & roll show featuring bands from the Vietnam era along with local bands as well as great food, arts & crafts and activities.

We are pleased to announce Lt. Colonel Oliver North, USMC, retired to VetRock as our keynote speaker. Colonel North will be addressing the attendees and will also be available for photos and book signings.

In addition to Colonel North, we have arranged for a stellar line-up of Vietnam Era bands to perform including Mark Farner (former lead vocalist from Grand Funk Railroad) and band, Mytch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels, The Soul Survivors, The Buckinghams, Seven Stone, The Bob Sterling Band, and the Jeremiah Hunter Band, all hosted by New Jersey’s own, Joe Piscopo, who will be our MC as well as performing with his own band. Even Miss New Jersey 2012, Lindsey Petrosh will be making an appearance.

Bring the kids and enjoy a carnival, complete with rides and games, a Genesis Consultants production.

VetRock 2013 will also host many food and beverage vendors, arts and craft exhibitors, and other available merchandise.

Come out and enjoy a 200 vehicle classic car show courtesy of Nostalgia Knights.

Be sure to purchase tickets now as VetRock promises to be a great day for the entire family
