The Sandbar will host a benefit in support of the family of their very own Terri and Jason Aucoin who lost their home and its contents in a devastating house fire on January 8th.

There will be live entertainment all day featuring All Class, Sheldon DeDieu, Kevin Kelly, Debbie & Amy, Danielle MacDonald, and Elyse & Garrett, and DJ Isnor’s ’80s-’90s Dance Party. Cash donations will be accepted at the door and 50/50 draws will take place throughout the day.
