The Fourth Annual Help Hook the Cure Derby will have boats from all over Massachusetts on the waters of Boston Harbor between 5AM and 3 PM on August 23, 2008. Nick Frasso, along with the Winthrop Lodge of Elks, will lead the charity event benefiting Parkinson disease research. A BBQ featuring a DJ and raffle prizes will begin at 3 PM to announce the winners.
"Everyone always has a great time and a lot of laughs at the derby," says Nick Frasso, diagnosed with Parkinson disease in 2000, "I named my boat the Shake N' Bait because a little humor helps me stay positive."
The derby, organized by Frasso, was highlighted in the summer 2006 issue of Parkinson Report and has raised $35,000 to date. The catcher of the largest striped bass will go home with $1000 while the person with the second largest will receive $250. Kids will receive a trophy for their participation. Head to Boston Harbor on August 23, 2008 and help hook the cure.
