WE ROCK FOR CASA

April 11th

A wonderful time was held by all at our gala this year. We had over 500 people in attendance and everyone said it was the best year yet. Mecee's Kent Zimmer and Julie Ingram kept everyone in stitches throughout the evening. Over 21 acts performed with variations of lipsyncing through the eras of the 50's through the 90's. If you missed it put it on your calendar for next year. You don't want to miss the wonderful entertainment for the whole family. We were able to raise $23,000 from this event to help with program development and increasing our advocacy base to serve more children. We would like to thank our sponsors for the evening events:BRP  US, Inc. for sponsoring the event, WQRL and Dana Communcations for all the media advertisement, Zeigler Eagles Auxiliary, Crownline Boats, Martin's Catering, Benton Civic Center, Pepsi Mid America, Benton Rotary, Benton Town and Country, Stotlar Herrin-West Frankfort, Weeks Chevrolet, Thomas Printing, and Franklin County Shrine Club.
