Another Successful Event!
The WE ROCK FOR AUTISM crew!
80’s in the Park
September 26th, 27th, and 28th 2014
Melbourne, Florida
Wickham Park Pavilion
We Rock for Autism was a proud sponsor of 80’s in the Park 2014 Event.
We spent the weekend spreading awareness and acceptance, and even raffled off some great prizes to raise funds.
1st Place won an Autographed Guitar (signed by most of the bands that played the event)
2nd Place won a T-Shirt/CD package that was donated by the band TUFF
3rd Place won two tickets for a guided kayak tour donated by Palm Bay Kayaks.
From popular bands of the decade to iconic movie & TV cars, the event had something for everyone. There was plenty of rain and mud on hand for the weekend, but the promoters of the event did a great job keeping things running smooth. We set up our booth with our good friends and supporters at Autism Awareness Shop, so there was plenty of awareness shirts, jewelry and hats available and all of the free temporary tattoos you could put on!
