Benefit for Corrine Pelowski

Statistics tell us that every three minutes a woman in the US is diagnosed with breast cancer. In 2001, Corrine Pelowski experienced this reality first-hand, undergoing a radical mastectomy and extensive chemotherapy. Just shy of her 5-year remission date, she learned that her cancer had returned to attack her sternum. Radiation treatments and continuous chemotherapy have followed. On Saturday (Sept. 22) from 1—11pm, a benefit fundraiser will be held at the Loyal Order of Moose (on 45 Church St. in Hamburg) to help offset the debt she’s accumulated as a result of her battle with an opponent that will visit over 200,000 American women this year alone. Musical guests include the Steam Donkeys, Lickity Split, Midnight Soul and Mojo Limbo. For tickets or to make a donation call 563-3832.
