It is no secret that Colorado has had a
great deal of recent heartbreak. Between the movie theatre tragedy in
Aurora and all of the wildfires that have plagued the state, there has
been a lot to grieve about. Within all of the darkness though, there
have emerged many stories of heroism. The firefighters who have risked
everything to protect lives, homes and forests through the devastating
fires are a shining example of this heroism.
To help celebrate some of these heroes
and renew some of their resources, The Mishawaka (Mish) Amphitheatre in
the Poudre Canyon near Ft. Collins has set up a benefit concert for
September 7th. It promises to be a great night featuring bands such as
The Motet, Head for the Hills and Juno What?! All proceeds will benefit
the Poudre Canyon Volunteer Fire Department who were instrumental in not
only battling the blazes but saving the historic
amphitheatre/restaurant as well. I was fortunate enough to be able to
fish the Poudre River throughout college and also had some good times at
the Mish. Both are very special places so I am sure it will be quite a
celebration.
If you are around Ft.
Collins in early September and want to help support a great cause, check
