'Double Treble ' Performs Benefit For Worth Township Foundation

ALSIP, IL — Come out, have a few beers, enjoy a buffet and get into a little “treble.” The Worth Township Foundation is hosting its first ever benefit featuring the Double Treble Dueling Pianos Wednesday, June 15, from 6 to 9 p.m. at Reilly’s Daughter, 4010 W. 111th St., Oak Lawn.

John Guerrini and Robert Kramer have traveled the country with their low-high brow dueling piano comedy act. These two Chicago-area pianists take turns squaring off, where the audience becomes part of the show. Drawing from an eight-decade repertoire of pop music, the keyboardists perform “a memorable night blending a dash of stand-up comedy and a heaping serving of sing-a-long, clap-a-long fun,” according to the duo’s website.

The foundation is asking for a $75 tax-deductible donation, which includes a buffet, drink and the show. Tickets are available by mail or at the door. The Worth Township Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Please make checks to Worth Township Foundation and drop them in the mail at:

Worth Township
11601 S. Pulaski Road
Alsip, IL 60803

Worth Township Foundation helps fund the programs the township provides to 12 communities within its boundaries, including the food pantry, senior services, Christmas Care, general assistance fund, school supply drive and youth commission programs, including a summer day camp, sports and other activities.

Former Evergreen Park Mayor Jim Sexton is development director for the Foundation and expects this will become an annual event.

“Everyone loves a good show, and this group does that and more, so we are excited to be hosting this fun-filled event to raise awareness and funds for the foundation,” Sexton said.
