Join us at our first annual fundraiser, Bands for Brittney, a family friendly event which aims to raise funds to support research and local families impacted by childhood cancer, in memory of Brittney Bliss and her battle with Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma. Through her yearlong battle with cancer, our family, like many others, discovered there was an extensive lack of funding directed to research for childhood cancers, like Brittney’s. Increased funding, research and advocacy can lead to breakthroughs for better treatment options, understanding of the disease and ultimately a cure!
Bands for Brittney will be held on Saturday May 11th, 2024, at Westfield River Brewing in Southwick, MA from 1-6pm. Tickets will be sold in advance as well as at the door and include:

  • Custom Bands for Brittney Tee Shirt – *Register by 4/17/24 to guarantee shirt.
  • 5 Live music performances & DJ/MC with special performances.
  • Food trucks – North Elm Butcher Block, Who Cooks For You, Fire Pies Pizza & Holyoke Ice Cream

    • Games
  • A special walking path of reflection honoring loved ones and their battle with cancer.
