A Concert for a Cause: Third Annual MDA Benefit
A Successful Day at Mohegan Sun
Due to the growing popularity of our benefit, we changed the concert site to one of the top venues for live entertainment in the country and booked an award-winning country music star to headline the show. Billy Currington was joined on the concert bill by A Thousand Horses and local favorite Arizona Maid Band. The latter group has been part of this event every year!
Along with Co-Presenting Sponsor TSI-Harley Davidson, Title Sponsor Mohegan Sun and Main Sponsors Mike’s Famous Harley Davidson and Brothers’ Harley Davidson, we organized an amazing, fun-filled day to help raise funds for families afflicted by neuromuscular disease.
The day began at the three sponsoring Harley-Davidson dealerships, with early morning refreshments and raffle entries before the riders took off for Mohegan Sun. We are sincerely grateful for the state police troopers who led each ride, so our friends and family could arrive safely at the venue.
Approximately 1,000 bikes arrived at the Winter Parking Lot of Mohegan Sun and it was a great sight to watch. With the trooper’s lights flashing up ahead, each group was excited to pull into the lot, show off their bikes and admire others. Before the show at 2pm, attendees visited sponsor booths.
The musical entertainment kicked off with local favorite Arizona Maid Band, who brought the crowd to life for the next act, A Thousand Horses. They also played a great set that further built the excitement for the main act: Billy Currington.
