Proceeds from the festival will support the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) and Wesley Burnham Foundation.
The Wounded Warrior Project is committed to its mission ‘to honor and empower Wounded Warriors’. WWP serves to assist military veterans or families that were wounded on or after September 11, 2001. Wounds are not always seen and WWP works to address all the needs for men and woman who paid their dues wearing a uniform.
The Wesley Burnham Foundation is a perfect opportunity to Shine Love! Wesley was a vibrant little boy who loved music, God and his blue guitar. Passionate about music, he led his congregation at Woodlawn Methodist Church in a Christmas concert the day he was in a tragic accident. His parents wanted to create a special memory, so they created a foundation in Wesley’s name to enable other children to experience the educational start he had that was grounded in faith, music and love. The goal is to raise enough money to start a music program in Wesley’s name.
Two-day access general admission tickets are $40 online or available for purchase at Shades or The HUB. The VIP tickets include a two-day event pass, lanyard, parking and seating in the VIP area at The Hub, drink tickets and finger foods at both events. VIP tickets are $100.
