Two Upcoming Fundraisers in Winterport!

The fine community of Winterport is planning two events for Gabe’s benefit. Unless I am in San Francisco (which I don’t believe I will be) I will be there and would love to see folks come out for these! The community has been so wonderful to our family during this time and this is just another example of how supportive and kind people really are.

Thursday, November 5, 5-7pm

Benefit Smorgasboard Supper at Smith School

319 S. Main St. Winterport, ME

Contact Laurel Coulter to arrange a food donation: soups, salads, desserts, etc. Her e-mail is coulstet@aol.com, or phone is 223-4057.

Donations for Gabe’s fund will be accepted at the door!

And also:

Sunday, November 8, 1-4pm

My Fork Bar & Grill

44 Main St. Winterport, ME

Three local bands will be playing for Gabe’s benefit. $5 cover goes to his fund.

I also want to recognize the hard work of Ali Simonds, a friend of mine and Gabe’s from UMaine, who organized a pancake breakfast for Gabe in her current hometown of Austin, TX, on Sunday, October 11th. She tells me that even though people did not know him (yet!) they were very supportive and that it went really well–there were even new crews there! What great community-minded people there are in this world. Thanks to all of you who have been such a help through this.
