Well, it’s officially the night before the night before the night before Christmas food bank fundraiser (boy, that was a mouthful!). We have finished the last radio interview with Mr. Hugh Colton from Town and Country Chrysler in his Dodge Journey Community Events Vehicle, yesterday we chatted with Brian Perkin from Lake 88 - these guys are both consummate professionals.

The Perth Farmer’s Market folks have been preparing their food all day, the setup crew is getting ready for their shift and the tickets are flying off the shelf!

It’s gonna be good - see you there!

The Commuters prepare to share the stage with Tell Mama

We are so excited to be hosting the Night Before Christmas food bank fundraiser again this year and joining us on stage for the celebrations is my favorite local rock band, The Commuters.

This year we are adding another twist to the mix - the theme for the night is “Local Flavour - Local Sustainability”.  Local food and local music will surround you all night at this great annual event.  We are encouraging event-goers to consider committing to a monthly gift to the foodbank of $10 or more.  For a $10 commitment we are offering an event ticket for free (donation of food or $5 still required at the door).  For a donation of $15 monthly the party-goer receives free entry to this year’s event.

We are hoping to give away 200 free tickets and in the process, help to keep our local food bank sustainable with regular monthly payments.

Kingston / Connecticut band Girlz Like That came out to O’Reilly’s Pub Perth (a la Tell Mama) and not only did they let us open for them but they let me play with them too!
