Tin Cup Marathon
Aug 6th @ J.Fox’s – Nestor Wynrush Ensemble & Maiko Watson $5
The first event of the Tin Cup Marathon.
What is the Tin Cup Marathon? In previous years Nestor aka Elliott Walsh has organized “The Give People Your Money Jams” that helped to raise funds for the Winnipeg based Rehab Centre For Children Foundation and Cancer Care Manitoba. Two organizations that are near and dear to him. Instead of being a one time event The Tin Cup Marathon will allow Nestor to raise funds for a charity at every event that he promotes or headlines (and a few others) for the next year. A Tin Cup named Lennox will be forever present at these events. Nestor finds running marathons to be very difficult, time consuming and not his cup of tea. However, He enjoys breaking a sweat on stage. In addition, Lennox will never complain of fatigue in his travels.
All proceeds thrown into the Tin Cup will be given to the announced charity of the evening. Tin Cup money (Lennox’s cash) will always be kept separate from the artists’ pay and regular door admission collections. Hopefully at year end there will be a few wonderful totals that will benefit those in need.
The name of Nestor Wynrush’s online label “Marathon Of Dope” was inspired by Terry Fox’s “Marathon of Hope”. Continuing on that line of thinking, The Tin Cup Marathon can be taken nationally on a small scale. The Tin Cup will allow a flexibility to raise funds for national organizations such as the Champs/War amps program when Ness performs in other provinces. The possibilities are inspiring and limitless.
I am currently waiting for the ok from the first organization that I would like to donate to. I will keep you up to date. Thanks for your time as always.
Sincerely,
Elliott Walsh
