BATH — To say the Daniels family’s year isn’t off to a great start is a bit of an understatement. So far 2019 has brought more than life’s usual share of challenges, and the Bath community wants them to know they’re not alone.
The Daniels family — parents Shelly and Adam and kids Mike, Molly, Sadie and Jonathan, aka “Buddy Dude” — have always been involved in the Bath community since moving here more than five years ago. They are active members at the Midcoast LifeChurch and have been seen volunteering at Heritage Days and other community events. They are active at the Chocolate Church Arts Center’s theater in several productions per year and have helped with a host of other service events such as planning local blood drives. As a nurse, Shelly and her family have always been the helpers, but now it’s time to accept the help they’ve paid forward.
The Daniels family will need love and support, as well as financial help to survive what has already been an unforgiving year for this family. The week she was diagnosed with breast cancer, Shelly learned her mother and stepfather had been murdered. Additionally, Adam has had to have surgery, and their children have faced several rounds of illnesses. Despite the constant challenges they have faced, the family has kept a strong faith.
A dinner and concert benefit has been planned by her church and theater community. All are invited to attend Sunday, March 24, at the Bath Senior Activity Center, 45 Floral St. Doors will open at 2:30 p.m.; the dinner and concert will start at 3 p.m. Combination tickets are $20 and include a buffet style pork roast dinner with mashed potatoes and vegetables as well as dessert. Concert only tickets are $15. The event is hosted by Midcoast LifeChurch.
Two local bands will headline the benefit concert– Expedition and Crystal Vision. Expedition performs an eclectic mix of folk/acoustic music from many times and places. Their two, three, four and five-part harmonies create an ever-changing palette of sound. Traditional instrumentation augmented with a strong rhythmic background makes the old new again.
The second hour will feature Crystal Vision, a Fleetwood Mac tribute band with an incredible degree of fidelity to the originals. Astoundingly authentic lead vocals, full harmonies and instrumentation reminiscent of early Fleetwood Mac concerts bring this amazing, timeless music to life.
Tickets may be bought online at danielsfamilybenefit.brownpapertickets.com and at Bracketts Market, Mustard Seed Bookstore, Starlight Cafe, Midcoast LifeChurch, William Raveis Real Estate, Now You’re Cooking and Pitter Patter.
