COLUMBIA, Tenn. — The 2018 Mule Town Revue boasts a lineup of talented musicians with performances ranging from pop to bluegrass. The event will take place on November 8 from 7-9 p.m. at the Columbia Central High School Event Center. The presenting sponsor is First Farmers and Merchants Bank and proceeds will benefit the Maury Regional Health Care Foundation.
Established in 2002 by musicians and local physicians Steve Simmons, M.D., and Bob Thompson, M.D., this annual event brings together a diverse group of gifted musicians who donate their time and talent to raise funds to help those less fortunate. Mule Town Revue proceeds will be used by the Maury Regional Health Care Foundation to fund the varied programs and services of the Foundation that bridge the gap for individuals facing a healthcare crisis.
“I would like to thank Dr. Steve Simmons and Dr. Bob Thompson. From recruiting musicians to managing logistics, orchestrating an event of this size and scope is a challenging endeavor. Their love for music and for their community is evident in the time that they have invested over the past 17 years to make Mule Town Revue a success,” said Joe Kilgore, executive director of the Maury Regional Health Care Foundation. “I would also like to express my gratitude to our presenting sponsor First Farmers and Merchants Bank. They are committed to supporting their local communities and we are grateful for their generosity.”
Tickets are on sale at Eventbrite as well as the Hatcher Lane branch of First Farmers and Merchants Bank. The cost is $25 per person. Children 13 and under may attend at no charge but must register. The Columbia Central High School Event Center is located at 921 Lion Parkway in Columbia.
Established in 2006, the Maury Regional Health Care Foundation has funded more than $2 million in programs and services for underserved and financially challenged populations. All donations directly benefit the community through the programs and services funded by the Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
