Kegs for Cancer





Kegs for Cancer held its annual event in Pittsburgh for the first time this past weekend. It has been a success in Philadelphia over the past few years, and we hoped that it could be as much of a success in Pittsburgh.


The event was held at Archie's Bar in the South Side. People paid $25 for a two-and-a-half hour open bar. I would say that throughout the night there was a good sixty people or so. The bar donated about $100 as well. All the money raised goes to the American Cancer Society for cancer research.


It was a pretty fun night, but the bar was not so great. We won't be having it there next year. Hopefully, we can find a larger place and have more time to promote the event. It's just beginning here in Pittsburgh, but next year we hope to have T-shirts for sale and some raffles going on.
