More than 30 bars (and counting) are joining forces with an event called "Raise Your Glass" that will support the families affected by the Molson Coors ("Miller") Brewery tragedy that took place on Wednesday, Feb 26.
"This is a one-time, area-wide, simultaneous toast," says organizer Dianne Crowley.
On Saturday, April 18, bartenders working at the participating bars will share a toast at 3 p.m. Check-in starts at 2 p.m.
Pre-register here and receive an exclusively designed "Milwaukee Strong" T-shirt and a complimentary 16-ounce Miller product. Tickets are $30.
