80s themed GFAA Newell Stadium Renewal Benefit Concert


We are so excited for our 80s themed GFAA Newell Stadium Renewal Benefit Concert Tonight Friday, September 9 at the Madfish on Rocky Neck.

Featuring SAFETY 80s band as well as the recently reunited Glostafarians!

According to the GFAA website “The GFAA is a nonprofit 501(c) community-based organization dedicated to the principle that all of Gloucester’s children should be able to participate in the sport of their choice, regardless of financial circumstances. As equally important is our belief that the student-athletes should be able to practice and play on safe and maintained facilities.The Newell Stadium Renewal Project is an initiative aimed at the future of Glouceser, its children, and their athletics. Over the years many of you have played, ran or just walked at Newell Stadium. Those days may be behind you now, but we need your help to ensure the present and future children of Gloucester get the same opportunities you did. They need a place where they can enjoy their sports, whether it be soccer, lacrosse, track and field, field hockey or football, a place they can feel safe, feel like a Fishermen, feel at home. That is our dream; to build a special place that every Gloucester Fishermen, past or future can be proud to call HOME. In order to accomplish this dream we need your help. Please take a minute to see what our dreams have inspired, and please think about lending your support.””This project is a reflection of our community” says Gloucester native and past GHS Fisherman, Dan King. “Currently Newell Stadium is in the most dire need of repair and is unusable for most events. The new stadium will host multiple public functions and be a shining example of pride for our city. It’s time to show the kids and the outside world that we care about where we came from and where we’re going.”
Local bands SAFETY 80s and the Glostafarians have donated their time and music to the cause. There is a $20 suggested donation/cover charge and doors will open at 8pm (21+ after 8pm). This event is sponsored by the class of 1988 alongside other GHS 80s classes.The general public is also more than welcome!There will also be a gathering at Rocky Neck Madfish Gallery Number 5 which will be free and all ages! Gallery 5 will display the plans for the new stadium, information and questions can be answered there by members of the GFAA, and donations of any size can be given there by people who want to take part and help but don’t want to go to the party. The Gallery will be family friendly starting at 6pm, Every Gloucester citizen is invited to come get informed and take part in making our city a better place! For more information, please email danking92@gmail.com.$20/8pm/77 Rocky Neck Ave. Gloucester, MA–
