Walla-Pa-Looza - this Sat.

Put this family event on your schedule for Saturday, July 31, and be sure to be in Johnsburg (Ill.) at the Walla-Pa-Looza "Raisin' Cash for Cancer" event.

This family event starts at 2:00PM at the Johnsburg Community Club, 2315 Church Street, in Johnsburg. $5.00 each gets you in the door; kids 12 and under - free. Last year the event raised $15,000.

There will be a battle of the bands (under 21), and the judge will be Cory Lockwood, host of The Time Machine on Saturdays, 2:00-6:00PM (except July 31), on www.mchenrycountyradio.net/ Cory's guest yesterday was Dina DeMonte, lead singer of Blush and volunteer at Walla-Pa-Looza.

Plan on food, music, family fun, and raffles.

The Walla-Pa-Looza Organization was founded in May of 2009 to raise funds for cancer research and the aid of local families struggling with issues related to cancer. Craig and JoAnne Wallace and Mike (gotta get his last name) are behind this event. The organization is a 501(c)(3) organization, and your donations are tax-deductible.
