GloryFest '22 - April 23, 2022
Our first-ever benefit concert - GloryFest '22 - was held at The Lot in Shreveport (LA) on Saturday 4/23/22!
​
Sincere thanks to all of the concertgoers and volunteers who supported our drives for The Food Bank of Northwest Louisiana and LifeShare Blood Center.​
​
Our title sponsor, Red River Range, generously donated a one-year Premium Solo membership that was be awarded to a local veteran.
Other door prizes included a one-year membership to the YMCA of NWLA, gift cards for Strawn's Eat Shop Too, dinner for two at The Blind Tiger, a rugged gear bag from LD Systems of Bozeman (MT), two Gold Level seats for a 2022 concert performance by The Shreveport Symphony, a gift card to The Library on Fern, a spirited bottle or two from Wildcat Brothers Distilling, and many more!
​
Our incredibly diverse lineup of musical acts featured Ole Whiskey Revival and includes classical guitarist Daniel Ainsworth, Caddo Middle Magnet School student and Shreveport United FC player Scott Cook, the ethereal soul stylings of K-Tea Callahan, The Aidan Fitz Group that includes local legend Robert Trudeau, the very cool and quite astounding Anna Lee's Revolver, plus the incredibly talented and entertaining Soul Grooves Live.
​
And...we were very proud to introduce a new band called Victory Position that absolutely blew people's minds with its performance!
​
The Valor Rations Rum Veteran Legend Award recipient at GloryFest '22 was radio icon and USAF veteran Larry Ryan. This award was proudly sponsored by Wildcat Brothers Distilling.
The Cuddy Family Foundation for Veterans will be committing 100% of the net revenue from GloryFest '22 to establish a food truck business in Shreveport that will employ veterans.
