Benefit Weekend

A benefit to help with travel and medical expenses for Michael  "Beef" Ventresca was held Friday, Saturday and Sunday, September 6, 7 and 8 at Moe's Bar and Grill located at 68 Mill Street in Port Allegany. "Beefapalooza" featured DJ Bill Friday night, a collection of local bands including Just Another Distraction on Saturday and a pulled-pork BBQ dinner on Sunday and much more.  The three-day event raised over $5,000.  Mr. Ventresca was recently diagnosed with lung cancer and will be traveling back and forth to Pittsburgh for chemotherapy and will eventually face surgery. He is a graduate of Port Allegany High School, class of 2002.  Pictured are Michael "Beef" Ventresca and Charli Moses as they check out some of the baskets that were donated for Sunday's raffle.  Missed the event, but want to help, go to http://www.gofundme.com/32czzgPam Fischer Photo
