Purple Pint Day 2016

Purple Pint Day 2016 at First Magnitude Brewing Company. Sponsored by Logokick.com and SERVPRO.

Wear your purple & come join us!

March 26th is Worldwide Purple Day for Epilepsy Awareness.  Although epilepsy is a common neurological disorder, affecting 1 in every 26 people, it is rarely spoken about.  

Our marketer & daughter of the owners, Julianne Raymond, is epileptic and works deligently to increase Epilepsy Awareness.  For November, Epilepsy Awareness Month, Julianne created the Tailgators for Epilepsy Awareness event.  For Worldwide Purple Day, Julianne created Purple Pint Day.

Purple Pint Day is an event on Saturday, March 26th from 2pm-7pm to be held at First Magnitude Brewing Company.  Adults, families and dogs are all invited to attend.  By wearing purple and donating $15.00, you will receive a 1 free purple pint cup, 1 free beer and a wristband for $0.50 off each additional beer purchased.  Julianne was lucky enough to have First Magnitude offer for the event to be held at their brewery. If you have never been; you must!  They are a great brewery with a wonderful family and dog friendly atmosphere.  Julianne was also lucky enough to have local businesses, Logokick.com and SERVPRO of Alachua County West, sponsor the event.  Obviously, she didn't have to try too hard to get owners, Mark and Becky Raymond, otherwise known as her parents, to sponsor the event.

So, please come and join us on Saturday, March 26th for a GREAT event!  All proceeds go to the Epilepsy Foundation of Florida to fund helping epileptics and most importantly, finding a CURE!  But as Julianne said, raising money is not her goal.  Her goal is to raise AWARENESS.  Hope to see you there!
