An entry fee of $40.00 at the door includes food and beer, live music and raffles. Funds raised all go towards helping children with life-threatening illnesses in the name of James Corrigan.
On September 11, 2001, Jim, a recently retired FDNY captain, was working as Director of Fire and Life Services for the World Trade Center complex. He was instrumental in saving the children in the Trade Center day care center in building 5 during the terrorist attacks. Jim did not survive the attacks. He was 60.
