Fall Equinox Festival
Our 2017 Fall Equinox Festival will be held on Saturday, September 23rd, the day after the Autumnal Equinox. Noteworthy for being the time of year when the day and night are equal in length, this is the time of balance and reflection before the night slowly overtakes the day in the winter months. For ages, this has been a time of celebration of the harvest and giving thanks. To mark this special time, the Druids Charity Club BBQ team has joined forces with Moe’s Original BBQ to put on a festive experience in downtown Montgomery.
To honor the harvest, Druids and Moe’s will offer delicious BBQ for the event’s patrons, providing both Alabama and Central Texas BBQ styles. To punctuate the celebratory nature of the occasion, an exciting music component will be provided, including three bands playing in the afternoon through the evening. This year will feature Blues & Americana style music. The headliner will be The Band of Heathens, a nationally touring act, and the supporting acts will be Big A Sherrod & the Allstars and The Family Reunion Trio. We strive to provide an atmosphere appealing to the entire family. As such, a Kids Zone will be provided in addition to a college football viewing station.
Hogs for the Cause
Hogs for the Cause (“Hogs”) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization focusing on helping families which have been affected by pediatric brain cancer. Many families in this situation find themselves facing overwhelming costs associated with their child’s medical treatment. In order to offset these hardships, Hogs provides monetary grants to families in need. Hogs is committed to maximizing the impact of every dollar to support these families. Currently Hogs operates as the premier funding source for pediatric brain cancer services in the United States and has given grants to over 300 families in just 7 years. The Druids Charity Club has partnered with Hogs, and we ask that you join our efforts to lessen the burden on these families. While Hogs is based in New Orleans, EVERY DOLLAR RAISED AT THIS EVENT WILL BENEFIT A LOCAL RIVER REGION FAMILY IN NEED.
