LEWISTON — Spirit for Lisa Spaghetti Supper Fundraiser will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 21, at the The Androscoggin Bank Colisée Baxter Brew Lounge. 

Skating coach Lisa Simmons was diagnosed with a brain tumor in November. After performing a diagnostic biopsy, in which 85 percent of the tumor was removed, it was confirmed that it’s an aggressive form of cancer and that Simmons will need medical treatment for it immediately.

Simmons has spent more than 30 years working with athletes at every level of hockey, from Learn To Skate to Junior Hockey to NCAA and to the NHL. Not only has she taught skating, she has taught integrity, responsibility, passion and charity through her hard work and dedication by bringing out the best in all of the lives that she has touched.

In the short time since the L/A Fighting Spirit has moved to Lewiston, Simmons has worked to establish a youth hockey program, a reading program for local schools and organized fundraisers for the Dempsey Challenge and local homeless veterans.

The cost of the supper will be a $7 donation. There will also be a silent auction and raffles.
