It’s back and better than ever!!
The Don Campbell Band is pleased to announce the 3rd Annual Flotilla to Fight Cancer! A free benefit concert in Casco Bay, with donations benefitting the Maine Cancer Foundation. This year’s event takes place Saturday August 19th, off Cow Island in Southern Maine’s Casco Bay.
This concert event is an actual flotilla of seacraft made up of all of you – concertgoers whose donations will benefit the Maine Cancer Foundation. The Don Campbell Band will be performing from a ‘stage’ aboard a lobster boat, with their audience gathered in boats of all shapes, sizes, and styles. The things that unite them are many: a common interest in fighting cancer, honoring those who have endured the disease, revering the professionals dedicated to treating and curing, as well as lovers of music, boating, and the many friends and fans of the Don Campbell Band.
Last summer’s event far surpassed expectations, raising over $52,000 for the Maine Cancer Foundation. This significant feat was accomplished through the collective support of an audience that was not only generous in spirit, but also in size.
Don Campbell says:
“I am truly grateful for the efforts made and inspired by the many people who support this event and help it grow year after year. Through this kind of collaboration, we can help make miracles happen. We expect this year’s event is going to be even more successful than last; for me, the anticipation of this concert can only be matched by that of the countdown to Christmas.”
Looking at this year’s event, the Don Campbell Band is adding even MORE excitement to the day with a few surprise guests, including 12/OC the Duo among others, you won’t want to miss it!
