Music for Life Rock n’ Run 5k & “Fetch Me a Beer” Can Release

Sep 28, 2021

More than 270 runners gathered at Wachusett Brewery on a beautiful September morning, ready for the start of Aubuchon Hardware’s annual Rock n’ Run 5K to benefit NEADS. After the race, runners and friends and family gathered in Wachusett’s shady garden to enjoy the beautiful weather, great music, and a special “Fetch Me a Beer” NEADS IPA. The can was designed by NEADS staff member Lori Barrett. Wachusett Brewing Company is donating a portion of the sales of “Fetch Me A Beer” to support NEADS.

Many thanks to both Aubuchon Hardware and Wachusett Brewing Company for a great day and your generous support. And many thanks to Stony Brook Camera Club volunteer photographers Joe Kennedy, Lynda Appel, and Stephanie Sioras for attending and capturing the day’s highlights.
