In September 2013, Drew Cook passed away from a heart attack due to a rare heart condition. His close friends put on a fundraiser the next year in his honour, called Heaps of Dreeps, raising over $7,000 for The Heart and Stroke Foundation.
This year’s event promises to be even bigger, with live music from Whiskey Talks, Brady Dyck, Jordan St. Cyr, Plain as Ghosts, Elliot Kyle, Joe Ashwell and Evan St. Cyr, Ineffable, and special guest DJs. Tickets will be $20, but kids are free (welcome until 6:00 p.m.).
There will be food trucks, games, face paint, bouncy castles, popcorn and cotton candy, bowling, golf, and more! Attendees are asked to bring one firework for the huge display at 10:00 p.m. Space will also be available for camping. For more information contact Ashley Humphrey at 204-392-8676.
