FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 21, 2003 (Nashville, TN) – The United States Marine Corps Reserve’s Middle Tennessee Toys for Tots program will host their annual Kick Off Celebration for the 2003 holiday season on July 24th from 5:30 to 7:30 pm at the Radisson Hotel – Airport. In addition to a night of mingling and food, country hit-maker Doug Stone will perform a very special acoustic set for attendees. The event will include a presentation of the All Aboard 2003 Campaign as well as highlights from the 2002 campaign. Stone, who’s list of country hits includes “In A Different Light,” “More Love,” “I Thought It Was You,” and “I’d Be Better Off (In a Pine Box),” is no stranger to struggle. The singer once housed his family in a converted milk house while he was working to make it as a singer. In the mid-nineties, Stone successfully recovered from heart bypass surgery and voice troubles, and has since triumphed back onto the music scene. “I have five children of my own, and they’re the greatest gifts I’ve ever been given,” says Stone. “Toys for Tots is a wonderful organization, and I’m honored to play a small part in helping them make the holidays brighter for underprivileged children.” Like Stone, USMRC Toys for Tots has grown better with time, and each year board members are challenged to help a growing number of children who would otherwise not be able to experience the true meaning of the holidays, because they do not have a gift under their Christmas tree to open. Thanks to local agencies and caring neighbors, USMRC Toys for Tots is able to reach out and provide for these families. Members of the media interested in attending this event and providing coverage leading up to the kickoff may contact Tina Hamilton at 615-977-0968. # # # |
