POTSDAM -- What better way to support the Help Sami Kick Cancer Foundation than listening to live music, enjoying some delicious food and drink and interacting with family and friends.

That opportunity presents itself on July 2 at The Lodge @Dreaming Tree Ranch with an outdoor concert, held rain or shine, from 5 to 7 p.m. featuring The Steven Cali Band.

Event coordinator and Canton native Jon Pinckney is excited for the event.

“As a longtime supporter of The Lodge @ Dreaming Tree Ranch, I am looking forward to bringing people together not only to celebrate our great country but a great cause too. The stars are quickly aligning, and I am overwhelmed by the support from the community,” stated Pinckney. “When I mentioned doing this event to Steven Cali, he said it goes well with what he stands for and loves the mission.”

“We have a limited number of online tickets available and open spots for sponsorships. Please don’t wait to purchase your tickets and thank you in advance for your support,” Pinckney remarked.

Tickets can be purchased at Tix.com for $20 each plus fees.
