To Honor The Late Musician With The Katie Reider Stage
At Annual Taste of Cincinnati Festival
Cincinnatians are preparing to honor Katie Reider, a beloved icon of the city due to her exquisite music and her courageous fight against a devastating facial tumor, with a memorial stage at Taste of Cincinnati -- May 23-25 -- and with 3 Tweets 4 Katie: The World's Largest Tweet-Up from P&G Gardens at Taste of Cincinnati in Katie's honor.
