Port City Rock Jam to feature seven bands, benefit two local charities
WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - While the Fourth of July was a fun occasion for many, one local group of young musicians had big plans ruined by severe weather.
Rukus was scheduled to play at 6:30 p.m. at the City of Wilmington’s Fourth of July celebration, but never got the chance to play in front of attendees due to weather-related delays.
