A portion of the proceeds from the event will go to Joe Nuxhall Miracle League Fields.

“That’s just another way to give back to a very important organization in our community,” Bastian said.

We have some sponsors that will be out talking about things that they have. So, it’s going to be a full day. Plus, our tenants, who are partners at our facility like Sara’s House, Petals & Wicks, and the Champion Mill Arcade will all be open. So, people can wander in and out, purchase some things, or pour a candle, she said.

The hope is that the event will become an annual, signature event in Hamilton.

“We just want everybody to come out and have a good time and we think this is a great way to do it,” Bastian said.

There will be an afterparty at Municipal Brew Works inside the Champion Mill Conference Center. No tickets are needed for the after party at Municipal Brew Works, the event is free to attend.
