Foundation Thanks Phish and Its Fans

The Vermont Community Foundation issued a statement Thursday thanking the Phish community for attending the band’s benefit show in Essex Junction.

According to the press release, The WaterWheel Foundation, which oversees the band's charitable donations, plans to announce in the coming days how much money the concert raised, as well as how the money will be spent.


The VCF and The WhaterWheel Foundation will share all proceeds from the show. So far, Phish has raised $9,285 towards flood relief. 

The show lured 12,000 fans to the Champlain Valley Exposition Wednesday and included an address from Gov. Peter Shumlin.
