Songs4Soldiers has seen tremendous growth in its charitable efforts and concert attendance since its inaugural show in 2013. Helping veterans nationwide, S4S has now spent over $1 million on combat veterans and their families, helping them with direct needs and financial hardships.
“A decade ago when this idea popped into my head, it felt special, and like it had legs,” Songs4Soldiers founder and combat veteran Dustin Row said. “But 10 years later to now have spent over $1 million on over 750 combat veteran families? I mean it is crazy and extremely humbling. It is still very hard to accept the region’s kindness, support, and financial commitments to this thing… We just hope the community feels our gratitude. ”
One-day tickets are $30 per person. A weekend pass is $50. Military veterans can claim a free ticket on the Songs4Soldiers website by clicking here, ages 12 and under are admitted free, and there is also free parking.
