Rock the House, support Samaritan teen crisis line
Concert is Feb. 6 at Clark Road church
Saturday, Feb. 6, the Ballard Vale United Church will present "Rock the House," a benefit concert to raise funds for the Samaritan Teen Crisis Line. Two years ago, the church made a commitment to fund the teen line which had been discontinued a decade ago after budget cuts. Knowing that the teen years can often present high rates of suicide, the church made keeping the teen line in operation one of its primary missions.
Rock the House will feature the well known Andover band One Step Away, as well as another Andover High School band, Left Hand Blue. Jeff Harmon, a member of Ballard Vale United Church, will act as master of ceremonies for the evening and play with his band, Johnnycab.
Rock the House is billed as a drug-free event and tickets will be $7 at the door. The event will be from 7 to 10 p.m. and doors will open at 6:30 p.m. All proceeds will be used towards the teen crisis hotline. Refreshments will be available for purchase. The church is located at 23 Clark Road in Andover and is fully accessible. For more information, call Noni Yount at 978-470-2921.
