WILMINGTON, MA – Relay for Life Committee Chair Joe Martiniello recently announced the Boston Burger Company food truck will be joining the festivities again this year. The town’s annual Relay event is Friday June 17th at 5:30 PM at the High School. That family fun gathering honors cancer survivors and their caregivers. Boston Burger will be with them from 5:30 PM until 8 PM.
“Since the event is open to the public and not just registered teams, this a chance for people to try the award winning burgers without traveling into busy Somerville,” explains Relay committee member Sheryl Walsh. “And they will have salads and other food choices on the menu as well.”
Boston Burger Company is the Triple Crown of Burgers. They won Rachel Ray’s Battle of the Burger when they appeared on her show. Guy Fieri featured them on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. And Boston magazine named them Boston’s Best Burger.
Owner and Chef Paul Malvone is from Wilmington. “ He appeared on nationwide TV as one of three finalists when he won Rachael’s Ray’s Battle of the Best Burger. He warned the other contestants, “You’re in for a burger beat down.” And he held true to his words. The winning entry was Malvone’s Hot Mess Burger described by one judge as “an event on a plate.”
2016 marks the eighth year for the Wilmington American Cancer Society fun-filled experience. The summer Relay itself is an overnight happening. Activities, food and entertainment are part of the celebration.
Teams of people camp out and take turns walking around the track. Music, costumes and decorations set the mood for them. Each team has a representative walking at all times during the event because cancer never sleeps.
