Brandanza band lineup set for August 21
By Jennifer Zartman Romano
Plans are already in the works for Brandanza 2010, a memorial event held for the second year in remembrance of the late Brandon Wade Minier.
Minier, the son of Mike and Debby Minier, husband of April Minier and father of two young children, died in a motorcycle accident in 2009, leaving his family and countless friends devastated.
As a means of remembering him, Chad Fry, Shannon Clark, Travis Grunawalt, Mike Thomas and Drew Minier began the tradition of Brandanza last year with great success. Brandanza is now an annual fundraiser, music festival and summertime social event all rolled into one.
This year, Brandanza is set for Saturday, August 21, with activities beginning at 3 p.m. at Portside Pizza, Tri Lakes.
This year's musical acts include Unlikely Alibi, Left Lane Cruiser, The Revisitors, Sparkleteaser, TIMBER!!! and Dirty Blue Jean. The bands will begin performing at 4 p.m.
The event will include a hog roast, activities for children, silent auction, cornhole tournament and more.
Admission is $10 per person or $20 per family which includes food and non-alcoholic drinks. Adult beverages will be available, but not included in the admission.
Portside Pizza is located at 5310 North Old 102, Tri Lakes.
