Benefit Concert and Auction

On Saturday the family and friends of Jessie Cooper showed up in the parking lot of the Wal-mart in Covington to put on a benefit concert and auction to help raise funds for her. On the south end was the concession stand and dessert table that had a steady line all day long. The band played on the main stage next to the auction tables, while the kids played on the moon bounce that was provided free of charge. In fact, everything was donated by people and businesses from the surrounding area, as they lent a helping hand. Many people stopped by to listen to the band, buy food from the concession stand or bid on items at the auction. Some just sought out family members to offer their support or to make a donation. The event was very successful and raised over $3000 for Jessie's fund. Enjoy the slideshows and spread the word along about Jessie to everyone you know. : )
