Please take a moment to read a message sent to our office from Steve:

“I’d like to thank everyone who attended and donated to our event, making it a very successful “First Annual” event! Looking forward to the following years to make this event bigger and better, in honor of my friend, Joe Rogers Jr. I’d also like to sincerely thank all of the performers, “Toby & Friends”, “Frizzell”, “Friends of Joe” and my wife, Lee, who did a fabulous job providing an excellent variety of music for the evening, Vision Church/Rock N’ Java, for allowing us to use their facility, Westland Resources, Inc. and Spectrum Printing Company for sponsoring and providing the tickets and posters, Laynie and Autumn for handling tickets sales at the door and the A.V. and Admin. folks atVisionChurchfor a wonderful job producing the show and assisting with the promotion of the event. And a special thanks to the gang at JDRF for their assistance and guidance in helping me make this a successful event. See you next year!”

Thank you to everyone who had a hand in coordinating, executing, attending and donating to the event! Your contributions not only raise awareness and educate our community but further our effort to find a cure for T1D!!
