Lucas is a beautiful 3-year-old boy from Maplewood who has an aggressive form of cancer called Burkitt's Lymphoma. He's in the midst of a lengthy hospital stay in Philadelphia, and his pre-school is sponsoring a Snowball Dance to help raise support and money for him and his family.
The Love for Lucas Snowball Dance will take place from noon - 3:00 pm on Saturday, January 9 at The Woodland in Maplewood. The event is for folks of all ages and will feature magic, food and drink, kid's activities like face-painting and balloon-animal making, and music, including a full-set performance by Tycoon Dog that will happen somewhere in the 1-3 pm time frame.
Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for children and can be purchased at the door on January 9, or online anytime (there is a small service charge if you purchase online). To purchase online or get more info, please visit loveforlucas.eventbrite.com. To make additional donations, please visit www.gofundme.com/getwelllucas. All proceeds go to help Lucas and his family.
We're very excited to play a rare "off-season" show, to join the community in celebrating and supporting Lucas and his family, and to honor the inspiration and memory of our recently-departed colleague Alisa B. Anderson, who showed us how important music, joy and positivity can be to those struggling with serious illness.
Please consider helping in this important and life-affirming effort. Visit the links above, buy tickets and/or make a donation, and join us at the Snowball Dance as we raise up a beautiful noise to celebrate and support Lucas and his family!
