Cocoon postpones fundraiser at Arlyn’s Good Beer due to COVID

Hallway at The Cocoon

The Cocoon, Wood County’s only comprehensive domestic and sexual violence agency, has decided to postpone the Parking Lot Party scheduled for Thursday, Aug. 26, at Arlyn’s Good Beer due to rising COVID numbers in Wood County.

This was a difficult decision on many levels, but The Cocoon’s first priority is always safety. The safety of Cocoon volunteers, staff at Arlyn’s, State Bank and Paramount Advantage, event attendees, Cocoon staff, Cocoon residents,and all of the families connected with them.

The Cocoon appreciates the support of Arlyn’s Good Beer, State Bank, and Paramount Advantage, the members of The Cocoon’s Development Committee, and all of the supporters and friends who help with this fundraiser to support programs and services for survivors of domestic and sexual violence. Cocoon staff look forward to seeing everyone at the event on the soon to be rescheduled date.
