West Bend, Wi – It’s a grim situation for families on 16th Avenue in West Bend, Wi who were impacted by heavy rains in August. Sewage filled their homes, walls collapsed, family memories were lost, and their place to live destroyed. On September 17, please join in an effort to help them recover as a benefit will be held at Gary’s Place, 110 Wisconsin Street, in West Bend, Wi.
Event Highlights
• Delicious Food and Beverages: Enjoy offerings from Gary’s Place, with 10% of proceeds donated to the families.
• Live Music: Local favorite Downtown Harrison will perform, creating a lively and uplifting atmosphere.
• Sample Beverage Tastings: Participating vendors will offer tastings to delight attendees.
• Charity Raffle: A raffle at 7:30 PM will feature prizes from local sponsors and a 50/50 raffle. Sponsorship opportunities are still available for businesses and individuals.
“The floods have been devastating for our community,” said event organizers Riley and Ashley Hansen, and Chris and Jenni Thompson. “This benefit is a chance for us to show kindness and support to our neighbors in need.”
