On June 22, five bands performed at the Mancos Brewery to benefit regional cancer support organizations. This special annual celebration created a time for community connection and love of music.
We are so grateful for the effort that went into this event and all the community members who attended. Thanks to all the bands – Farmington Hill, The Crags, Dana Ariel & the Comin’ Up Roses, Group Shower and Bluegrouse.
Together, we are making strides to break the barriers people face while dealing with cancer in rural Colorado. Extra thanks to Erik Nordstrom and his team of volunteers and sponsors, including Mancos Brewery. We are already excited for next year.
