Julie Berls Memorial Concert and Cookout

Join us this Saturday 7.19.2014 from 1:00 - 6:00 pm at Lincoln Park Pavilion (450 W Main Street, Saint Charles IL 60174) for our annual Julie Berls Memorial Concert, cookout, and raffle + a day-long celebration honoring Julie Elizabeth Berls, a St. Charles East and Eastern Illinois University graduate who was taken from us too early in life. 

  • Concert is free and open to the public!
  • Raffles and door prizes
  • Tie Dye (bring your own garment, or dye one of ours!)
  • Fresh food off the grill 
  • Live music from 8 local musicians and bands, including Bill Hogate, George Jett, Soul Tonic, Pat Collins (Exit on Elm), Gina King, Kevin Berls, Heather and Hope Pennington, and Freak's Hill

All proceeds collected at this event benefit the Julie Berls Memorial Scholarship fund which awards a $2,000 scholarship annually to a graduating senior from St. Charles East High School with plans to attend college and major in elementary, secondary, special, or musical education. The scholarship is meant to help support talented and passionate students to continue the dreams of teaching that Julie had worked so hard to pursue, but never got the chance to continue.

Help us fund-raise for this worthwhile scholarship to keep Julie's incredible passion and talent for teaching alive, and to help others carry out her dream to be a positive influence to children. 

If you are interested in sponsoring the event, donating a raffle prize for the event, donating to Julie's Memorial Scholarship Fund, or have any questions, please email Kelsey at krankin6@gmail.com

Hope to  see you there!
