Huge shout-out to YOU, yes you, our amazing BOB family and worldwide punk community. Because of your generous "BOB Giving Fund" donations at ticket purchase, over $2k was raised! Funds have gone to .oakland punks.with.lunch, , and some individuals that could use a few extra bucks to make it through the tough times. We've also reserved a small amount for emergencies, to be used for folks with unforeseen medical bills and the like. So amazing to know we got each other. Up the punx!
🤘🏽🖤❤️

Hello:
B.O.B. fest happens every 2 years in rotation between Bremen, Oakland and Bath and traditionally in the spirit of mutual aid, we have a raffle/auction to raise funds for two long term family members: Steve Chinn (Oakland ) and Koma (Bremen). Steve is a long time musician and screen printer who was involved in the founding of BOB fest when he had an intracranial hemorrhage and stroke in 2005 which left him paralyzed on one side, with expressive aphasia and inability to work or provide for own needs; Koma is a long time music and sports fan who had a heart attack during a surgery in 1998 in Germany and due to loss of oxygen to brain was left with severe brain damage and paralysis. Both of them still maintain longer term memories and enjoy listening to music, going to sporting events, and live music (punk rock) events; eating out; and being around friends. We raise money for special needs for them which are not covered by Medi-Cal (U.S.) or the socialized medicine system (Germany) : which would include paying for a caregiver to take them on an outing or for the tickets/refreshments and other special needs. All funds raised are shared with both individuals and then if another BOB family member is having a medical crisis or long term disability we might be able to add funds for them too.

This year , we had an art show with some pieces donated to sell for the auction, live auction items, silent auction and fun random stuff for sale every day of the festival. We want to thank the artists that donated their pieces, and everyone who bought something or donated. We made over $3k this time (WHAT?!) 😁. WE LOVE OUR PUNK ROCK FAM ❤️💯 love from Siobhan and Larry and the auction committee

Much love to all, our community is only growing and becoming stronger, BOB will persist to keep punk alive, to break down borders and barriers to a fair, inclusive, and equitable world for all. Each of you that participated made sure of this, please be kind to yourself and take a moment to feel the love we all shared this week.
