Giving Back! Charity Events
We always believe in giving back and paying it forward. Our past production was a success for the SERTOMA benefit at Benderson Park in Sarasota Florida. Both in 2024, and in 2021. 2025 booking is in the works. The show in 2021, I opened for Tim Reynolds from The Dave Matthews Band (and his alternate band, TR3). What an awesome show and fund raising event this was. We’ve done Kicking Cancer Fundraiser in Sarasota at Evie’s Tavern & Grill on Bee Ridge.
In August 2023, we provided music to the Clayton GA Band Booster fundraising event.
I spearheaded fundraising for an event in Highlands, NC to raise money for victims of Hurricane Helene in 2024. Along with a local band, and the charitable efforts of staff, owners of The High Dive, and the management team at Old Edwards Inn, we raised $4,800.00. We take pride in helping organizations with their mission of bettering their community and for worthwhile causes.
