This Memorial Day weekend, you can help support our veterans and hear some great music at the Veterans Tribute Festival. The event is Saturday, May 24th at the Bridwell Ag Center. It all starts at 10am with a car show and the day will conclude with a live concert from Abby Anderson, Hijackers Hollow, and Wichita Falls own Johnny Cooper.

Johnny took a few minutes to call in and talk to Drew about the festival. He said it's a great event and he was excited to be a part of it. All net proceeds will benefit the Wichita Falls DAV and Johnny pointed out how we easily forget that many of our veterans can use some extra assistance.

If you want more information about the festival you can visit their website or find them on facebook. Advance tickets are available online and are $10 for any past or present military ($15 otherwise) It's sure to be a fun event and for a great cause this weekend in Wichita Falls.
