WXBM Auctions Beulahfest Autographed Guitar For Autism
April 11, 2013
A guitar signed by the major artists at last month’s Beulahfest was auctioned off Wednesday morning, netting $1,000 for local autistic children.
The guitar — signed by country stars Randy Houser, The Kentucky Headhunters, John Anderson and Confederate Railroad — was auction on 102.7 by morning shows hosts Marty White and Lindsey Marie. Within an hour, the wining bid was submitted by Allen Moore.
The autographs were obtained by Steve Grant, organizer of April Nicole’s Ride For Autism, with all of the proceeds set to be used locally.
“This money will buy aids such as iPads and apps for iPads to help autistic children communicate better, but they aren’t cheap. When Steve approached us, we were more than glad to help”, said White. “That’s what we have always done at WXBM. When there is a need, and there is always a need, we do what we can to help and our listeners always come through.”
The April Nichole Ride for Autism will begin at 9 a.m. this Saturday at Ollie’s Neighborhood Grill in Milton. For more info, call Steve Grant at (850) 324-0295.
