A.R Cash, the Johnny Cash tribute band, is set to put on a sold out concert on the stage in Preeceville on October 12, stated Stacey Strykowski, one of the organizers.
"The response has been huge and it has created a lot of excitement,鈥� she said. 鈥淭he tickets sold out quickly which is better than we anticipated. It will be a great evening packed full of great entertainment.
鈥淲e originally had set a goal of 325 tickets but they sold out within a couple of days. We decided to add more tickets because there was still so much interest.聽 We have maxed out now at 410 tickets and those sold within 10 days. I feel bad that we had to turn people away,鈥� she said.
The event is sponsored by the Preeceville and District Health Action Committee. All proceeds will be used towards health care in Preeceville focusing on doctor recruitment and retention, said Strykowski.
The concert style event will feature a full bar, coffee and non-alcoholic beverages and 50/50 tickets. A late lunch will be provided free of charge after the show.
