While the traditional Deaf Camp benefit concert might be on hiatus this summer, there\u2019s still a reason to hit Fanny Hill this weekend \u2014 Rock for a Reason.<\/p>\n

Planned as placeholder for the Deaf Camp event, Rock for a Reason will bring local nonprofits to the mountain during a bonus Saturday free concert.<\/p>\n

\u201cGet ready to rock for a great cause,\u201d said Rose Abello, director of Snowmass Tourism. \u201cRock for a Reason is an awesome opportunity to learn more about our valley\u2019s local nonprofits and their missions, while enjoying a great band.\u201d<\/p>\n

The band \u2014 The Greatest Hits on Earth \u2014 Live! is presenting Spectrum of Soul featuring Skip Martin (formerly of Kool & The Gang) and special guests \u2014 will provide the perfect backdrop for participating nonprofits to share their mission with locals and visitors.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe town of Snowmass Village became a workplace partner of Aspen Strong\u2019s in 2019, and partnerships with Aspen Strong empower employers to equip their employees with tools to address their mental health needs strengthen the individual, the organization and our community,\u201d said Christina King, founder of Aspen Strong, which \u201cpromotes mental hygiene and connects the mental health resources in the valley.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo when the town invited us to participate, we felt it was a great opportunity to continue our awareness efforts and get people connected,\u201d she said. \u201cAll people struggle and we want our community members to know that they are not alone \u2014 just like the aspen trees, we are all Aspen Strong.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aspen Strong is among a diverse lineup of nonprofits including Challenge Aspen, JAS Aspen Snowmass, Mountain Rescue Aspen, Snowmass Community Foundation and others.<\/p>\n

While at the show, concertgoers can get involved in these organizations by signing up to volunteer, become a member, make a donation, buy swag and learn more about what these nonprofits have to offer.<\/p>\n

Plus, the Aspen Camp of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing will again receive all profits from alcohol sales. Concertgoers also can buy a $10 reusable aluminum cup, which gives the cup holder $1 off the cost of drink refills, with proceeds also going to the Deaf Camp.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce again, this is a fabulous summer of music in Snowmass,\u201d Abello said. \u201cAnd, we are so grateful to the Deaf Camp for offering a reusable cup this year, we all need to work together to reduce waste.\u201d<\/p>\n
