Put the “Fun” in Fundraiser for Stan the Man

Stan the ManOn Saturday, June 1st, a special Stan the Man fundraiser is being held in Roslyn that is quite simply not to be missed. If you’ve spent any time in Roslyn, it’s likely you’ve felt the impact and influence of Stan in some way. He may have acted as the Master of Ceremonies in an event you attended, given you a ride somewhere when you needed it, sound engineered the live music you enjoyed, or any other number of ways he’s helped lift up the community from behind the scenes (check out our brief interview with Stan from 2011 to learn more about his service to the community). Now is our opportunity to give a little something back to the man who does so much!

Earlier this year, sudden medical issues resulted in over $30,000 in unexpected expenses. The benefit is being hosted to help Stan offset those costs so that he can continue his mission to provide awesome support and service to the community. That being said, it’s also going to be an extremely fun evening comprised of the following:

  • 6pm to 8:30pm – Private Cocktail & Dinner Party
  • 8:30pm – Open to the Public Concert with the Willies
StoneHouse 101

StoneHouse 101

The Willies is a fun band that is sure to bring the party, and all of this will take place at StoneHouse 101. If you’ve never been to Stonehouse 101, you will not be disappointed. It is a work of art masquerading as an event venue.

A donation of $100 per person (or $150 per couple) is requested for the dinner party, and space limited. The dinner party will consist of appetizers, a four course dinner, friends and fun (brought to you by the fabulous Crave Culinary Arts). A donation of only $15 per person is suggested for the concert (and beer and wine will be available for purchase throughout the night). Of course, this is all for an awesome cause, so you are welcome to donate more if you wish.

Stan the Man with the White Van

It seems like anywhere you go in Roslyn, you can’t avoid hearing the name, “Stan the Man“. Perhaps it’s when someone has had one to many to drink and asks the barkeep to dial up Stan the Man. Or, when the community is holding an event that features music, and Stan the Man is called on to pull it together. Maybe it’s when you’re attending one of Roslyn or Cle Elum’s many open mic nights, where Stan the Man and his instruments take center stage. Whatever the case, you are sure to hear his name if you stick around long enough. As such, it was a real treat for us to catch up with him at Roslyn’s Sunday Market to find out more about his weekend designated driver services and his passion for music. If you wish to contact him, find him on Facebook, or just roll into one of Roslyn’s bars on a weekend and say “dial up Stan the Man!”
