Local girls host second annual Brainy Day

Lucy & Ruby’s Brainy Day was held Saturday, May 9 at Mountain Brook Community Church’s University Christian Fellowship House.

This is the second annual event, which was created by Vestavia Hills residents Lucy and Ruby Harris to honor their father, Scott, who died from glioblastoma brain cancer.

Musician Roger Day from Nashville, Tennessee, performed along with The Undergrounders. The fundraiser featured food trucks, a silent art auction, prizes, face painting, games, cookies and lemonade. 

The girls plan to hold the Brainy Day each May, which is Brain Cancer Awareness Month, as a way to keep their father's memory alive and provide hope to others currently living with brain tumors.
