Milford Ed Foundation's Shred For Ed Concert
The Milford Education Foundation (MEF) will be holding its first annual fundraiser at the Milford Arts Council on Sunday October 5th from 2 - 5 PM.
The event will feature two local bands to provide an afternoon of fun, entertainment, and socialization as the fall season gets underway.
The bands featured include The InLaws, a family band that includes MEF board member Ed Faruolo on lead guitar, his daughter Dana Witter on lead vocals, his son-in-law Dave Witter on vocals and drums, son-in-law Kyle Cantwell on vocals and guitar, and “adopted” InLaw Derek Jones on vocals and bass. The group covers a variety of hits from the 50s up to the present. Ed is a life long Milford resident and his daughter Dana grew up in Milford and attended Milford Public Schools.
The afternoon will also feature ZZNot, a highly popular ZZTop cover band featuring Dave Witter on lead vocals, Joe Scallia on drums, Mike Fitzgerald, guitar and Matt Beckett on bass. The band also includes a variety of blues and R&B classics in their repertoire that are guaranteed to get the crowd moving! Both bands have played in a variety of regional pubs and events throughout the state.
Tickets are priced at $10 per person and all proceeds will benefit the Milford Education Foundation. To help control facility capacity tickets are being sold to align with two time slots: A. 2:00 - 3:30 PM and B. 3:30 - 5 PM. A limit of 100 tickets per time slot will be sold.
