Last year’s bonfire was a tremendous success, with hundreds of people gathering around the festive fire, listening and dancing to music, and enjoying food truck delights. The event raised approximately $35,000, and this year we project even more.
There will be food trucks on site plus event t-shirts for sale at the pavilion next to the stage. Bring your chair, tent, blanket, cooler, picnic basket or whatever makes you comfortable to enjoy a great night of music, dancing and being together to raise money for cancer patients and their families through Swim Across the Sound.
