Mark your calendars for a fun event happening in September, The 27th Annual Westport Rock Rhythm & Blues Fundraiser to benefit A Wish Come True!
This fun, music filled weekend is September 9, 10 and 11 at the Holy Ghost Club in Westport MA, and it is the brainchild of former A Wish Come True board member Frank Ray. Frank is a musician and he held the very first concert fundraiser back in 1995, it was just one day back then.
Frank calls this event a reunion because many of his family members, friends and former students show up to party and perform. And over the years he's helped raise over $1 million for A Wish Come True! This event has granted loads of wishes to children and teens suffering from critical illnesses.
Tickets for the Friday barbecue and music are just $25, call 508-493-0915 to purchase before the event so they know how much food to buy. Tickets for Saturday and Sunday are only $20 and can be purchased at the gate on the day of the event. CLICK HERE for more info
