October 11th marked 11 YEARS of Shining Cassidy’s Light and this year's A Night to Shine. We were honored to remember Cass and celebrate her life and legacy with our brightest event ever! Together we raised a glass to Cass and also raised nearly $45,000 to support the ShineOnCass Mission.

Shine On Cass is so honored to partner with the Boys & Girls Clubs and YMCA at the Alfond Youth & Community Center to hold this much-loved event at the new Alfond Lodge on McGrath Pond in Oakland!

A Night to Shine is our largest annual fundraiser, hosted by our friends TJ & Kerry Smart, with presenting sponsor Milestone Funeral Partners. The evening welcomes a 21+ gathering for fanciful wine, beer, and spirits samplings, plus delicious mocktail tastings, complete with a cork pull, extravagant silent and live auctions, amazing food, and a special performance by Pineland Suzuki Violinists, followed by the famous Joan Kennedy Band -- all under the stars overlooking beautiful McGrath Pond in Oakland, Maine!
