beers for bob
Every year on Bob Block's birthday weekend, "Bobs" from all over gather for a bar crawl in celebration of our favorite guy. What started as a social media takeover in 2021, Beers for Bob has quickly evolved into a yearly tradition. While the flagship crawl takes place in Lancaster, PA, we encourage you to celebrate in whatever city you are in.
Each year, merchandise is sold for the bar crawl, and 100% of the profits from these sales go directly to the American Cancer Society in Bob's name. Check out the merch, follow along on social media for updates, and get ready for another successful crawl this year.
2024 crawl date: Saturday, August 24th.
BOB'S STORY
Father. friend. Life of the party.
To know Bob Block was to know compassion, kindness, and humor embodied in one soul. He was a selfless and caring person who made friends everywhere he went in part because of his charming demeanor, but mostly because of his infectious laugh. With a quick joke or movie one-liner for every conversation, Bob lived each day with a smile on his face.
In 2017, Bob was diagnosed with stage IV liver cancer. He fought like a badass for 3 and a half years, and spent this time making memories with the people he loved most - his family.
We now honor his memory in the only way he would want us to - with a bar crawl during his birthday weekend, raising money for the American Cancer Society to hopefully help others fight and win their own battles. What started as an impromptu way to spend Bob's birthday quickly became a global celebration. We have people from all over the country, and even internationally, crawl with us each year. So, whether you are joining us in Lancaster or hosting your own crawl for Bob in your city, we are happy you're here. Cheers!
