Banded Foundation and Sterling Bank Host Charity Event

Bloomfield, Missouri - Chad Belding of The Fowl Life and The Banded Foundation hosted the first concert event at The Boat House Wine Co., in Bloomfield, Missouri.  The event benefited the Stoddard County Children’s Home and 18 Fore Life. The event raised a little over $5,000 for the charities.

The night began with a local favorite and 18 Fore Life founders the “Buzz.”  They were followed by Lawrence Music Group’s Josh Pruno.

Pruno’s show featured his debut hit “23rd Psalm” and his newest release “Cutoffs.” The night wrapped up with Nashville recording artist Brice Long, known for his songwriting.

Brice co-wrote “Nothing On but the Radio” for Gary Allan and has also written multiple other songs for Randy Travis, Josh Turner, and John Michael Montgomery.

Belding said, "I am very pleased that this first ever event was a success and that money was raised to benefit the two Stoddard County charities.  This event would not have been possible without it sponsors."

The Banded Foundation would like to give special thanks to the event sponsors: Sterling Bank, Nathan Maurer, Mark Booker, and Matt Mills with the Legacy Club.

Other Sponsors and donors deserving thanks are as follows: Laura Jane Yarbrough (event planner); County Wide Insurance; Greg’s Auto Sales; Eric Rinehart with Real Action Waterfowl; Jon Thompson with Webb Woods; and Banded Nation.
