Trapper Schoepp Live @ 7 p.m.
Trapper Schoepp and Rock the Stream present a concert series to share great music to raise funds for local organizations and to create an environmentally sustainable world. Each week they will feature a past performer from Rock the Green's Annual Earth Day Celebration and Sustainability Festival.
Artists are paired with an environmental non-profit to raise funds for both the artist and non-profit. 100% of the funds that are donated are split between the artist and non-profit. This week's non-profit is Milwaukee Riverkeeper.
