Casa Maria: Thanksgiving Benefit

By Jamie Manser

Local musicians are here to rock you and donate all proceeds from the door to Casa Maria, a social service agency that helps feed the hungry.

The line up includes:

8:30 Rich Hopkin's Luminarios

9:15 Cathy Rivers

10:00 Kevin Pakulis

10:45 Sandrubies

11:30 Triple Double Band


Amanda Schauger writes: "It's that time of year again, Thanksgiving where we gather together in solidarity with Casa Maria Soup Kitchen and the nearly 1000 homeless people and working poor families who are served daily. Casa Maria has been in existence for about 30 years and is overseen by Catholic Worker Brian Flagg and his loyal following of volunteers. Brian, like all the full time volunteers receive $10/week plus three hots and a cot.

This year will mark the 9th year we have done this benefit for Casa Maria. This concert provides much needed dollars for the kitchen and helps promote the public awareness of how economically difficult these times really are and the people who are deeply affected by the race wars."

Bring a $5 donation and canned food items to Plush, 340 E. 6th St.
