DevonSquare / Schooner Fare and Friends Reunion Concert
Annual Schooner Fare/Devonsquare and Friends Reunion Concert
Every year, Schooner Fare, Devonsquare and many of their musical friends join together for a special concert to benefit the Jack McPhillips Memorial Fund. These reunion concerts were begun by Jack himself as a way to see his two favorite bands at the same time.
What is the Jack McPhillips Memorial Fund?
Single-handedly, Jack organized the first two Devonsquare/Schooner Fare benefit reunion concerts. With his untimely passing in the early 1980s, the Jack McPhillips Memorial Fund was formed to continue his mission of humanitarianism in local communities. JMMF is a non-profit organization, designed to provide financial assistance to a wide range of local charities. It is administered by a board of directors composed of the McPhillips family and friends of Jack.
Who does the Fund help?
JMMF is a small but unique organization that seeks to help those who have little chance of finding help through large agencies or whose situation requires immediate assistance, e.g. fires. We depend upon friends and acquaintances to bring these needs to our attention. If you come across a crisis situation where you think we may be of help, please contact us by writing to: Jack McPhillips Memorial Fund, PO Box 2753, South Portland ME 04106.
How does the JMMF raise money?
JMMF produces the Annual Devonsquare/Schooner Fare and Friends Reunion Concert in late February or early March in Portland, Maine, which in its thirty or so years of existence has been the main source of funds for the JMMF's good works. Starting in 2009, the fund began sponsoring and benefiting from the Remembering Tom Rowe Concert held annually in May on the Saturday night of Mother's Day weekend in Lewiston, Maine.
