Collin Reynolds Birthday Benefit
Donation protected
Collin Reynolds was an inspiration to Vermont, Musicians, his community, his family, and eventually the world. Collin had a life long battle with Cystic Fibrosis, a battle which ulitmately overcame him March 11.
Collin's loss was felt the world over, with people from both sides of the Atlantic wighing in on the loss. Vermont and the world lost a true light.
I believe one day there will be a world where our young men and women and everyone inbetween are no longer lost to this illness, where there's no more battling ones own body for breath.
That's why I wish to book a show on October 25th, which is Collin's birthay. The event will be called "lion's roar", and the entire event will be a rememberance to Collin and others who have passed, and a call to attention to those still battling. 100% of the proceeds garnished from this show will go to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation at the request of the Reynolds.
We plan to hold the event at Higher Ground on 10/25/15. Rental for the space will be $1100 and that secures us the date. We may try to book a regional band that Collin would have liked if this gets enough money, but the main concern is securing the funds to rent the space.
I set my goal at $2000 to make sure we have enough room incase anything pops up, but the go fund me makes more money than is needed ALL EXCESS FUNDS will go to CFF.
If we can reach our goal is means on 10/25 we will have an event for everyone effected by CF to come together and celebrate, laugh, cry, and dance in the music community Collin loved so much, and with the costs covered 100% of the door money goes right to CF.
So I ask you all, even if you didnt know Collin but support our brothers and sisters in Vermont music, if you're part of the Vermont punk/hardcore/metal scene like Collin was, If you knew or know anyone with CF, to donate what you can for this cause.
Let's give him an amazing birthday, and let's spread hope to all those with birthday's coming up.
