"Gabrielle-A-Palooza" Planned for August 13th
to Honor the Memory of Gabrielle Chiu

The friends and family of Gabrielle Chiu want everyone to remember how beautiful, kind, and talented Gabrielle was... they would like to give everyone a chance to be together to heal... and at the same time, they would like to give a little back to the school that nurtured her talent and creativity.

So they are planning a celebration of Gabrielle's life and music, and they are calling it "Gabrielle-a-Palooza". It will be held at the intersection of Pleasant Avenue and Nebel Way in Iselin, on Saturday, August 13th, from 3:00 to 9:00 PM. The rain date is scheduled for the 14th. Details are still evolving, but it looks like it will be a big event, with bands and an open mic, and food  and other items available to purchase. Proceeds will go to Collier High School.

This is a FREE show, but donations are GREATLY appreciated. You can bring these donations to the show, or you can mail them to: Collier High School,C/O The Chiu Family, 69 Pleasant Avenue, Iselin, NJ 08830
