2 cancer benefits by Jenna band

The Jenna Won’t Sing Band, which is Monongah’s Greg Patrick and his accomplices, will be doing the first of its two benefit shows for Breast Cancer Awareness Month at 6-8:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 18 at the Firehouse Café, 323 Adams Street, Fairmont, owned and operated by Fairmont firefighter Mark Delbrook.

The photo is of the tye-dye shirt donated by Jenn Wells, owner of the Black Dog, to be raffled off during the show.

The Jenna band will do another cancer benefit show 7-10 p.m. Friday, Oct. 24 at the Fairmont Field Club (dinner will begin at 5).

Both establishments will donate 10% of their dinner sales each evening to breast cancer research.

Jim Pulice, Class of 1969, retired Monongah Middle School principal and son of Jim Pulice, Class of 1948; son Eric Pulice, Ron Yanero and Patrick, Class of 1970, form the Jenna Won’t Sing band.

Jenna is fresh from its Thursday performance at Fairmont West High School, where former Valley FOGG member (a 1960s incarnation that preceded Jenna’s birth) Bob Bonasso stepped in at the last minute to sub for one of absent band members.

And I'm happy to report that the band's equipment that went "missing" after its Monongahfest performance has been returned to its rightful owners.
