Tickets for the event are $75 each and can be purchased by visiting castingforhope.org/music or contacting john@castingforhope.org or taylor@castingforhope.org.
“We are limiting ticket sales to the first 175 purchasers, and we’ve already moved over 100 of those tickets, so we’d encourage folks to get their tickets now before we run out,” Sharp and Zimmerman said.
Funds raised will support local women being treated for gynecological cancers, a community especially dear to them, as they both lost close relatives to the disease.
“This includes gas cards to get to and from treatments, mortgage and rent payments, over-the-counter and prescription medications, medical bills, utility bills, emotional health, among other services that Casting for Hope provides to patients,” Sharp and Zimmerman said.
The organization also provides fly-fishing retreats for the patients to give them a break from the stress of medical treatment.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, last year’s Hope in the Hills event was held virtually, with more than 125 people participating. This year, Casting for Hope will take all necessary precautions to help keep people safe from the virus.
“We have been requiring COVID-19 vaccination for our fall events so far this year, including our retreat from a few weekends ago,” Sharp and Zimmerman said. “When participants arrive, they will be greeted by a Casting for Hope staff member or volunteer. At that time, event goers will show their vaccination card for vaccination confirmation and, our next most important mitigation strategy, take a rapid COVID-19 antigen test. Event goers will receive instructions on timing their tests and present their test results to staff in exchange for their entry wristband to the event. Additional layers of mitigation include having the large doors at Hidden Hill open to increase air circulation through the venue and platforming two of the three musical presentations outside.”
