FUNDRAISER
This year's Barefoot Children in the Sand Weekend Fundraiser will be our 12th year of putting on this one-of-a-kind event and you will not want to miss it.
We are so excited to announce our Friday night entertainment this year. Thom Shepherd and Coley McCabe will be opening Barefoot Children in the Sand this year and we couldn't be more excited. They are both exceptional singers and songwriters with so many great songs to perform for you. They have performed at all the major Trop Rock festivals around the country as well as being fixtures in the country music scene. They will open Barefoot with a bang.
The Saturday Hallway Party returns once again this year and after a one year abscence so do Two Dudes in Flip Flops. We are so ready to have them perform again this year and set the tone of the craziness of the Hallway Party!
Our Saturday night act is BIG! We have tried in the past to get them here to Indiana in the winter and finally our begging and pleading has paid off. The incredible Donny Brewer Trio is our Saturday night entertainment this year. Donny brings his own brand of excitement with an amazing catalog of original songs and covers.
Rounding out our lineup is Greg Jones, who will be entertaining us in the hospitality suite after our nightly main events.
The charities for this year's fundraiser will be Kindness to Prevent Blindness and The League of Miracles Sports Leagues.
