A Call for Help!



So as most of our readers are already aware of, BrewEngland is setting up a really kick ass beer tasting at this year's "Cure Me I'm Irish" event. So far, we've booked Mayflower Brewing Company, Cape Ann Brewing Co., Blue Hills Brewery, and Magic Hat. With a little more success, we'll finalize the brewery list this week, and be set for the ultimate brewers line up.

Staying with the beer theme, I've also reached out to local restaurants that have a focus on New England craft beers to make donations to the cause. I don't have them in my hands yet, but we're putting the finishing touches on acquiring some great gift certificates from some restaurants that I know you've heard of.

Each year they have several raffles, not to mention one of the best silent auctions I have ever seen. Last year's event saw autographed movie scripts, Celtics and Bruins tickets, Bruins and Patriots autographed memorabilia, great getaway packages to spas and hotels, just to name a few.

This is where YOU come in! Aside from purchasing tickets, which not only includes the beer tasting but a FULL open bar, the Friends of Will is looking for donations big and small! Whatever you can spare, the Friends of Will could use!

If you would like to buy tickets to the event, please click here to purchase online. If you would like to donate money or items, please email Pat Lacey at pat@beatnb.org. You can also leave a comment here, and I will pass on your information.
