NECN's TV DINER Host Billy Costa will once again serve as emcee and auctioneer at this fabulous event, with all proceeds from the night and the auction going to the Pan-Mass Challenge, a 192-mile bike ride from Sturbridge, MA to Provincetown, MA, the largest fundraising event of its kind in the world.
The goal: To fund research and to find a cure for cancer.
Last year, the PMC set a record with more than $34 million raised for cancer research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. This year, we'd love to raise even more. We'll provide the good time - but we need your fundraising help.
We'll have fabulous live and silent auction items, plus a DJ and NECN on-air personalities roaming the crowd. And then there's the food and drink - tons of barbecue from Blue Ribbon, and your ticket purchase gets you a complimentary beer from Harpoon! (Special thanks also to Festive Occasions for donating catering supplies for the event!)
