Dune at Wychmere Beach Club

23 Snow Inn Rd,
Harwich Port, MA 02646

 

Step into a world of inspiration and impact at the WellStrong Second Annual Gala, an exclusive event set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Wychmere Beach Club’s newest addition, Dune.

Join us for an evening that promises to be nothing short of extraordinary, filled with elegance and purpose. Our distinguished speaker for the night is none other than Chris Herren, whose journey from a celebrated basketball star to overcoming the clutches of addiction is both compelling and inspirational.

An extraordinary basketball player, Chris Herren was a celebrated star in his native Fall River, MA before graduating high school. He went on to play at Boston College and Fresno State, two seasons in the NBA – including one with his hometown team, the Boston Celtics – and seven seasons overseas before losing it all to the disease of addiction. With the unwavering support of his family and friends, Chris has been sober since August 1, 2008, and he now shares his story with the goal of making a positive difference in the lives of others.

His recovery journey has been documented in the bestselling memoir, “Basketball Junkie,” the Emmy-nominated ESPN Films documentary, “Unguarded” and in countless local, national and international stories by The New York Times, The Boston Globe and Sports Illustrated, among others. Through Herren Talks, Chris has spoken to over 1 million students and community members, sparking honest discussions about substance use disorder and wellness.

As you step into the glamour of the gala, expect an evening that is above the ordinary. The night begins with a sophisticated cocktail hour, setting the tone for an elevated experience. Then, be captivated by Chris Herren’s powerful speech, a moment that promises to leave a lasting impression.

But the excitement doesn’t end there! Brace yourself for a live auction featuring exclusive items and experiences, as well as high-valued raffle items that could be yours for the taking. The gala is not just an event; it’s a celebration of recovery, community, and the pursuit of wellness.
