All day today, you can stop by and give what you can to help support the Bangor Humane Society and a local family in need.

In May 2023, the Bangor area received heartbreaking news when Amanda Curry unexpectedly passed away. Amanda was a mother of two, a valued member of the High Tide family, and a friend to many throughout the community.

Following her passing, social media was filled with an overwhelming outpouring of love, memories, and support from friends, coworkers, and community members whose lives she touched.

Today, from 11am to 10pm, High Tide will host a celebration of Amanda’s life, where friends and family are invited to gather, share stories, and honor her memory.

Helping animals was especially important to Amanda. Each year on her birthday, her family donates to the Bangor Humane Society in her honor. This year, High Tide is partnering with the Bangor Humane Society for “Curry Day,” collecting both physical and monetary donations in Amanda’s memory.

Donations to the “Amanda Curry Memorial Trust,” which directly benefits her daughters, Kieran and Kristin, are also welcome throughout the event.
