Country singer Tracy Lawrence will play his final annual charity Homecoming Concert on Saturday, June 6, at Foreman Memorial Stadium, in Foreman, Arkansas.

Joining Lawrence for the concert, which has raised more than $1,000,000 over the last 15 years, will be Tracy Byrd, Richie McDonald, Neal McCoy, Clay Walker, 3 Doors Down and Zona Jones.

“We’ve had a great time putting on the Homecoming Concerts and the return, to actually see how our efforts have contributed to the strength and education of a new generation, has been so gratifying,” said Lawrence. “Unfortunately, we’ve run our course with this particular event and the production costs have moved us to seek out other alternatives that will benefit the community in the long run. We’re going to regroup to explore more cost-effective ways to raise funds for the kids.”

Get ready to dozey-doe and head on down to a hoe-down with a cause on June 28, when two of today’s biggest country music stars headline a charity gig in New Jersey.

The venue will be the House of Blues Music Hall in Atlantic City, and the stars will be Tracy Lawrence and Tracy Byrd – two singers who will be sharing more than just first names on the night.

The gig will benefit Fourth and Goal, a charity started by former Baltimore Colts safety Bruce Laird to act as the voice of retired NFL players and their families. The event kicks off the inaugural Smith & Nephew Fourth and Goal Classic at the Showboat Casino in Atlantic City, a two-day event that includes a celebrity golf tournament and silent auction. The grand finale will feature a performance by both Tracys and fellow country music artist Pat Green.

Robin Leach, host of “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous”, played Master of Ceremonies for the TJ Martell Foundation’s annual No-Limit Texas Hold ’Em Tournament, in which dozens of country music and rodeo stars came together last month during the National Finals Rodeo week.

After a silent auction kicked off the event, country music artists Charley Pride, Luke Bryan, Buddy Jewell, Brice Long, and Tracy Byrd joined rodeo stars Britt Bockius and Justin McBride at the tables. The event raised thousands of dollars for the Foundation.

“I don’t play poker that much,” said Pride, who came third overall. “I know very little about Texas Hold ’Em, but it is for such a good cause.”
