Benefit concert for fire station rebuild Sept. 29
The Warren Cultural Center, in partnership with the Iowa Rock ‘N Roll Music Association, is proud to announce the “Greenfield Strong: Still Rockin’ After the Storm” benefit concert. It is an event meant to embody the resilient spirit of the Greenfield area following an EF4 tornado that destroyed a portion of the community.
The concert will feature a dynamic lineup of local and regional artists, each delivering uplifting performances that echo the strength and solidarity of the Greenfield community. In addition to the live music, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a special raffle and auction, with items such as an electric guitar autographed by country music legend Vince Gill among the highlights.
All proceeds from this event will go toward rebuilding the Greenfield fire station that was destroyed in the tornado.
“We’re not just putting on a concert, we’re creating an opportunity for our community to come together and show that, even after the storm, Greenfield is still rockin’,” said Thaddeus Hawley, event organizer. “This event is about more than just raising funds to rebuild the fire department, it’s about lifting spirits and standing strong together.”
The “Greenfield Strong: Still Rockin’ After the Storm” benefit concert is meant to represent a pivotal moment for the community, offering a chance to heal through music, support and collective action. It is a reminder that, “in the face of adversity, the spirit of Greenfield remains unshakable”, organizers said in a press release.
