2 min read

Memorial Health Foundation has announced a partnership with the Ohio Valley Opry for an evening of music and community spirit featuring a stellar lineup of talented performers to raise funds for the foundation's crucial initiatives.

"We are thrilled that Ohio Valley Opry has chosen to raise funds for Memorial Health Foundation and the patients we support," Jarrett Stull, executive director of Memorial Health Foundation, said. "This event promises to be an unforgettable experience that will leave you smiling and inspired."

The event will be held 6 p.m. July 15 at the Twin City Opera House, 15 West Main St., McConnelsville.

Tickets are $15 to $25 and are available at OhioValleyOpry.com or by calling (740) 525-9218.

Attendees can expect an evening filled with traditional country, bluegrass, and gospel music favorites performed by artists including The Clarks, Brian Bragg, Davis Eckert, Jake Allen, Dylan Mayle and Sam Rupe.

Beyond the musical extravaganza, the event represents an opportunity for the community to unite and make a lasting impact, the foundation said. By attending the fundraiser, guests directly contribute to the initiatives of Memorial Health Foundation, supporting its mission of providing exceptional care and support to those in need.

"I am so grateful that we have exemplary health care right here in our region. Memorial Health System has taken great care of my family through the years, and I wanted to give back to say thank you," Deana Clark, founder and performing artist with Ohio Valley Opry, said. "As a family of performers, it seemed fitting to hold a concert in memory of my beloved daughter, Leah Clark, to support the health system that means so much to us and our community."

The collaboration of Memorial Health Foundation and Ohio Valley Opry represents a unity between the arts in the community and health care, Stull said.

"It is truly a testament to the power of music to heal and bring communities together," Stull said. "Through this event, we aim to not only uplift spirits and inspire joy but also raise funds that will directly benefit patients in our community."

Memorial Health Foundation is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to building a healthier community through education, special patient assistance funds, charity care, state-of-the-art medical equipment and funding to areas where the need is greatest.
