BIG Broadway Bash - Success

Saturday, Broadway Bar & Grill Rockland had a packed show for the BIG Broadway Bash, organized by BIG-FM to raise funds for The Rockland Help Centre, and Canadian Mental Health Champlain East, funds will remain local in the region.  This show, featuring local cover-tribute band, EastEnd Hicks, sold out in recording time; less than two weeks.

Money was raised through ticket sales, a raffle for NHL-Senators memorabilia, the sale of BIG-FM wear, and the restaurant donating 10% of profits from drinks and meals. 

 “Now that both 92.5 BIG-FM, and 107.7 BIG-FM, Hawkesbury, are now under the GO-FM umbrella, we are 100% locally owned, and operated and will continue to find ways to give back to not only local businesses, but causes that matter to our listeners.” said General Manager of BIG-FM and GO-FM Mathieu Manning.

This first annual event raised $6592.00.

“We are planning on doing more events similar to this across Prescott-Russell to not only provide affordable entertainment to residents, showcase local talent, but also support charities/associations in need.” said Derrick Scott, Operations Manager Of BIG-FM, both Clarence-Rockland, and Hawkesbury.

“Since BIG-FM launched in May, we estimate that we have already provided at least $20,000 in advertising support to local events, and charities. We invite all groups in Prescott-Russell to reach out to us, including local businesses that want to be linked to charity events, such as Sauve Law, and KoolTech Mechanical, who sponsored The BIG Broadway Bash.” said Scott.
