The 4th Annual Beach Jam For Breast Cancer

Join the Westbrook Elks and the Shoreline's Hottest Party Band FreePlay as they raise money for Breast Cancer patient services at The Smilow Cancer Center at Yale New haven Hospital

The Westbrook Elks Lodge #1784 is proud to be the sponsor of the 4th Annual Beach Jam for Breast Cancer, and the Ct Shorelines hottest party band, Freeplay, will again host the event.

Beach jam is different from many other Breast Cancer fundraisers, in the fact that 100% of the proceeds go directly to benefit patient care services at The Smilow Cancer Center at Yale New Haven Hospital. The treatments for cancer are often one of the toughest ordeals any person can go through, so it is the goal of this fundraiser to make the patients as comfortable as possible. The comfort and the overall attitude of the patient undergoing treatment is a major factor in the patients recovery.

Joining FreePlay onstage this year will be: Four Barrel Billy, Rock Bottom, Smoke Bubbles, One Way Out, The Sons, Del Perez Acoustic, and The Taxmen. Tickets are $25 and include lunch, which will be served from 1PM to 5PM. Kids under 12 are free, and will also receive lunch as well. There wil lalso  be a raw bar and additional food available for purchase. A silent auction will be set up inside the Elks Lodge, and free give always throughout the day. A commemorative event T-shirt is included in all advance ticket sales, and will also be available for purchase during the event. For complete details, please go to the following websites.

The event happens September 1st, with gates open at Noon, at the Westbrook Elks Lodge, 142 Seaside Ave, Westbrook. The event is Rain or shine, and should end around 9PM. Emphasis on should….

Owners really need to pick up their dog's waste. It is a major polluter of the Long Island Sound.Read More Whenever your dog drops one and you leave it, think of that fish, lobster, or shellfish you ate from the Sound! Enjoy eating your dog poop bacteria!

I'm so lucky!! For 10 years my dogs have frolicked safely in the back part of Bauer - away from theRead More roads, traffic and homes - closer to the back of the HS. I have never heard any dogs bark or 'yap', never saw a dog run into the gardens and destroy the plots, never saw a dog fight or kids being assaulted and luckily avoided all the poop they are leaving behind although I do dodge the deer pellets. My timing must be stellar to avoid all the bad dogs, their dismal behavior and threats to others. Whew!!

The whole state is tick infested. Luckily, dogs can use a product called Frontline Top Spot or itsRead More cheaper generic equivalent, which completely protects them from ticks and fleas. On the shoreline to Middletown, you should be using it on your dog year round. I once saw a deer tick crawling on SNOW in Madison near the Country School in February. The Lyme vacine is ineffective in most canines and most canines that get Lyme, shake it off in time - unlike humans. Top Spot keeps the ticks off or dead for the humans that pet the dog. Regardless, dogs running on cut grass some distance from woods or taller grass won't encounter many if any ticks. Especially if the outer perimeter of the fence is treated in spring and fall.
