We recently learned about a lovely young woman, Risa Whitaker, and the battle with cancer that has been suddenly thrust upon her. Risa is a graduating senior at Pioneer Heritage Academy, an enthusiastic member of the In Motion Ballroom Dance Team, and a wonderful friend to many. While the diagnosis of cancer is clear, none of the experts (including Doernbecher and John Hopkins) can figure out what kind of cancer it is or how to treat it. Right now Risa and her family need our prayers, love and support, and help with the mounting medical bills - close to $20,000 at this point.

As our way of helping, Jim Band Music is donating 1/3 of revenue from tickets sold between Saturday, May 22 and the day of our next show. This is the perfect opportunity to treat your family to the excitement of live popular music in a safe, family-friendly venue while also doing your part to help the Whitakers.

Here are all the essential details:

What: Daniel Beck and Jenny Jordan Frogley in concert

When: Friday, May 28 Doors open at 7:00 pm, concert starts at 7:30 pm

Where: The Venetian Theater in Hillsboro (253 E. Main Street)

How: Purchase tickets online at www.JimBand.com. Tickets are $15 each, but there is a 20% discount when 5 or more seats are purchased at one time. All seating is general admission.

We really hope a lot of you will make the effort to come and join us for this very special show.
