Concern Hotline Fish Fry

\nJoin us for one of our community&rsquo\;s most cherished traditions as the Concern Hotline Fish Fry enters an exciting new chapter.
\nWhat began as a humble fish fry has grown into a beloved annual event\, welcoming nearly 2\,000 guests each year for an evening of great food\, live entertainment\, family fun\, and shared purpose. This year\, we are proud to partner with the Clarke County Ruritans and bring the celebration to the Clarke County Fairgrounds - creating an even bigger opportunity to gather as a community in support of Suicide Prevention Awareness.
\nConcern Hotline is a free\, 24/7\, anonymous hotline serving the Northern Shenandoah Valley of Virginia with information and referral\, crisis intervention\, and suicide prevention services. Through our trained Community Volunteers\, we provide compassionate listening and support to individuals and families facing difficult moments. Events like the Fish Fry help sustain that mission and ensure that hope and help remain available when they are needed most.
\nThe Fish Fry is more than dinner - it is a celebration of community spirit and generosity. Guests can enjoy fresh fried fish\, classic coleslaw\, cornbread\, red beans and rice with andouille\, pizza\, and Bruster'\;s Ice Cream!
