Country Stars Step Up To The Plate For City Of Hope

The 21st Annual City of Hope Celebrity Softball Challenge is set to take place on Saturday, June 11 at Greer Stadium in Nashville. The first artists confirmed to play in this year’s game are Vince Gill, Dierks Bentley, David Nail, Brett Eldredge, Chuck Wicks, Jake Owen, James Wesley, Josh Gracin and Point of Grace. These artists, and more to be announced soon, will take the field for the highly anticipated game between longtime rivals Grand Ole Opry and After MidNite with Blair Garner.

This year, City of Hope is offering two lucky winners the once-in-a-lifetime chance to become “draft picks” for the Grand Ole Opry and After MidNite with Blair Garner teams by entering the “Connected to Hope Celebrity Softball Challenge” contest and sharing their story of how they are connected to City of Hope. “Connected to Hope” stories can be based on a personal connection to, or treatment at, City of Hope; a connection via research and therapies developed at City of Hope and in use worldwide; or an emotional connection to City of Hope's mission to prevent and cure devastating illnesses.

We go to Nashville for the CMA Music Festival each year and this is definitely one of our favorite events all week long. Tickets are on sale HERE. Be sure to get yours before they’re gone!
