Fundraiser Concert for Jaycee Lee Dugard
http://renotahoe.about.com/b/2009/09/17/fundraiser-concert-for-jaycee-lee-dugard.htm
The community of South Lake Tahoe is holding a fundraiser this Sunday, September 20, for kidnap victim Jaycee Lee Dugard. The concert will be at the Horizon Casino's Convention Center from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. The event is titled "Building New Bridges" and everyone is invited to come celebrate her safe return after 18 years as a captive. Funds raised will bolster the fund Dugard and her family will need to begin the long recovery from this horrific experience.
Bands playing at the concert will include The Movers, The Garcia Brothers, Big Red Band, Turquoise and more. There will also be food, a cash bar and silent auction items from South Lake Tahoe lodging properties, restaurants and area activities. Local businesses who have donated their time and services include Horizon Casino & Resort, Lake Tahoe Gaming Alliance, Tahoe Beach & Ski, Lake Tahoe Soroptimists, and the performing artists.
Residents Kathie Garcia and Fionn Lambert are hosting the event. "I've lived here a long time, and Jaycee's disappearance 18 years ago had a significant impact on our community," said Garcia. "I wanted to raise funds to help Jaycee in her recovery process and I thought a concert would be an excellent way to bring people together. I've reached out to the leaders in our community to participate and the response has been overwhelming - it will truly be a memorable event."
Tickets are $25 for adults. Children 11 and under are free. Tickets are available online from Ticketmaster, at the door, or by calling the Horizon box office at (775) 588-6211.
The "Building New Bridges" event will benefit the Jaycee Dugard Family Fund. You can also make donations to the fund at Bank of the West, 2161 Lake Tahoe Blvd., South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150. For more information call Kathie Garcia at (530) 542-4354
