Mental Health Benefit in Floyd on March 1

Hey Floyd, somethin' to do on March 1!
Tommy Edwards, former Virginia Tech Football standout, is pleased to announce the "Senti-MENTAL Journey" Benefit Concert at the Floyd Country Store, in Floyd, Va, on Saturday, March 1, 2008 at 8:00 pm. Tickets are $10 at the door, and seating is limited, so get there early! All proceeds go to The Heart of Virginia Foundation, founded by Tommy as a result of the tragic events of April 16th, 2007, on the campus of Virginia Tech

This event will mark the beginning of The Heart of Virginia Campaign to raise awareness of the desperate need for expanded and accessible mental health and well-being programs in the Commonwealth of Virginia and to destigmatize mental illness through education and community outreach.

The benefit will consist of a variety of musical acts, door prizes, a silent auction and a 50/50 raffle. Acts include Tommy Edwards, No Strings Attached, Blue Mule, and Bernie Coveney with Natural Selection.
