Posted this on facebook once before but wanted to post this again in both places- facebook AND blog in case people hadn't seen it or wanted to support it. This event has been set-up as a way to celebrate Aaron's life and continue his legacy he wanted to start after he passed away. He wanted us to create a memorial scholarship fund in his name. This event will be to raise money for the scholarship fund itself so that Aaron's dream, wish, name, memory and legacy will live on. He wanted the scholarship to be something given out year after year, and by raising money for this event, it will definitely help! Two "sisters" of Aaron came up with and have organized this amazing event- a pub crawl in the Portland Old Port (Maine) on July 14th! Check the website below for more information. Registration for the event is $20 and I believe most if not all of that money will go straight to the scholarship fund. Even if you can't attend the event but want to help out and donate to the fund you can also do that on the website below- if not contact me and I'll give you the information.
It should be a wonderful and fun day filled with many friends and people whom Aaron touched in his short but vibrant life as well as with beer (how appropriate!). He made friends easier wherever he went, so I know he would love that all of his family, "family," friends and possibly acquaintances that loved Aaron. He would love that we are celebrating and raising money for his fund by coming together to do it. Anyway- we'd love to see you all there (family, family friends, friends of Aaron, his fraternity brothers/UMaine/Student Government friends that are in the area, even those who may not know Aaron well, if you want to participate in the pub crawl for a good cause, please feel free to come! We'd love to have you all. Here is the website with more info:
