Harold Melvin's Bluenotes and Evelyn Champagne King

On Saturday August 6th, the Viking Pride Foundation is hosting its second annual summer concert featuring under the lights on Miller Field.  This year's performance features Harold Melvin's Bluenotes and Evelyn Champagne King.  This theme is similar to last year's hugely successful disco era show featuring the band Tavares.  The Tavares event was attended by nearly 900 people - ask around, a great time was had by all.  For those purchasing VIP seats on the field, you will have access to the dance floor situated right in front of the stage - a crows favorite from last year (yes we are getting a bigger dance floor this year!).
 
Information on the show can be found at our website:  http://www.vikingpride.org/events.htm
 
Tickets for the event can be purchased in one of three ways (please don't forget to mention that you are a Gorman Fort Banks family and that you heard about the concert here):
 
1.  Purchased online by visiting our website at http://www.vikingpride.org/events.htm 
 
2.  Visiting our table in Winthrop Center this Saturday morning (July 30) between the hours of 10am and 1pm (cash or check)
 
3.  Contact one of our board members.  You can reach Scott Kinsella via e-mail at sckinsella[insert at symbol here]yahoo[insert dot symbol here]com
 
Please come out on August 6th and support Viking Pride in its mission to improve the quality of our student's educational experience.  This event is a great opportunity to arrange that long overdue reunion with some of those close friends that you've lost contact with over the years, while supporting a great cause.  Thank you - Scott "Whitey" Kinsella.
 
The Viking Pride Foundation (VPF) is an IRS recognized 501-c3 non-profit charity dedicated to supporting cocurricular
activities in the Winthrop Public Schools. Since formed in 2004, the Foundation has donated over $550,000 to
the school system through various initiatives. We believe strongly that every child deserves the opportunity to
participate in athletics and other co-curriculars such as drama and student council. We are the first Foundation of its
kind in Massachusetts and have mentored many other communities in ways to reduce “user fees” and encourage
participation in co-curricular activities. For more information, visit our website at www.vikingpride.org.
