Some of you may already know that our very dear friend and server at ten feet tall, Chad, has been in the I.C.U. at St. Michaels Hospital for almost 2 months fighting for his life.
The good news is that he is slowly on the mend. To help out with the enormous financial burden this has caused for Chad, Carin and Andy at Ten Feet Tall are having a fundraiser!
There will be a silent auction and an open mic featuring some very talented entertainers. So please, come raise a glass for Chad and be a part of this wonderful night on Saturday July 21st starting at 8pm. Let’s get this Super Hero back out saving the world! (or at least serving you brunch!)
