The color grey represents awareness for brain cancer. The family is kindly asking for establishments to support this event by donating  gift cards or products before February 21.

Scott’s Parents, Tom and Sue Matter have lived in Farmington for decades and have been local business owners for over twenty years, founding C&S Hand Bindery in 1993. The family has supported several community events as the city has progressed and developed. Now they are seeking the help of the community they serve, for their son, in support of his continuing battle with brain cancer, their daughter in law and their one year old granddaughter. For more information on Grey Matters and Scott’s fight, please visit scottmatter.com and for sponsorships or donations for the event, please contact Scott's mom, Sue Matter at 651-402-9991 by February 21.
