Concert raises $75,000 toward 9/11 memorial

A new memorial to 9/11 victims is a step closer to completion, following a successful benefit concert that raised $75,000 for the cause. The indie-roots band Dispatch, preceded by local artists Caroline Jones and The Ian Murray Band, rocked the house at Garcia's, an intimate venue inside the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, N.Y. A member of Dispatch, Pete Francis Heimbold, grew up in Riverside and went to Brunswick School.
