(Tallahassee, FL) – A great day of music and community is coming in support of a great organization, in memory of a great musician and person, Pat Ramsey. Pat’s wish was to give back and October 25 will mark the 6th year benefiting Big Bend Hospice in Pat’s honor. The benefit will be held at the Bradfordville Blues Club, 7152 Moses Lane, Tallahassee, Florida.
Pat Ramsey was a well-known and loved person, musician and blues singer around the globe. Pat passed away on Nov. 17, 2008 but his music lives on and he is remembered in the hearts of his family, friends and fans. This annual gathering brings together all of these people for a celebration like no other.
Music will be held on the inside stage and the outside stage under the Mossy Oaks – and then later at night, around the bonfire.
Remember, all of the participating bands and musicians ask to play and ALL are giving their time and talent for Big Bend Hospice. All have their own experiences with hospice and they also want to give back for the love and care given to their loved ones, and for the love they had for Pat. Please remember when you are at the event to let these musicians know how much they are appreciated. We want this year to be our best year yet so tell all your friends!
There will be a silent auction (accepting donations) as well as a 50/50 drawing, numerous raffles throughout the day, with a big raffle item for the final drawing. All proceeds are going to Big Bend Hospice in Pat Ramsey’s name. If you can’t attend the event and would like to show your support by making a donation in Pat Ramsey’s name, you can do so atbigbendhospice.org . Click the “Make A Gift” link.
Mark your calendars, tell your friends, and we hope to see you there! Bring your children – there’s plenty of room for them to play. Free for age 12 & under or if you wish… give a donation.
