‘You’ve been Sentenced!’ To Host First Annual Celebrity Charity Tournament on June 7
Game manufacturer McNeill Designs for Brighter Minds (in partnership with Nashville Music Guide and Red Buck Cigars) will host its first annual celebrity charity event during Country Music’s biggest week. Celebrities will be seated to play the award-winning game “You’ve been Sentenced! Country Music Edition” on Thursday, June 7, from 2:00-4:30PM at the Hard Rock Café in the heart of the activities in downtown Nashville. The tournament brings together some of country music’s brightest stars who will play the word game to benefit the children’s charities Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and the literacy organization Success Won’t Wait.
The outing offers the unique opportunity for country music fans to sit down beside their favorite celebrities and play the “You’ve been Sentenced!” card game or simply enjoy the action. Artists confirmed to date include: Jeff Bates, Ty Brown, Burns & Poe, Jason Michael Carroll, Buddy Jewell, Matt Kennon, Danni Leigh, LoCash Cowboys, Justin McBride, Jaclyn North, Julie Roberts, Doug Stone, Rhonda Vincent, Mark Wills and more. The game play will be followed by acoustic performances.
“We’ve always known that the country music industry has tremendous heart,” said McNeill Designs CEO, Don McNeill. “The interest and support shared by the community as a whole for this charity event has been overwhelming and it’s even more moving in consideration of the number of appearances, concerts and events these artists are juggling as part of their hectic CMA Fest schedules.”
Created to go above and beyond family fun, “You’ve been Sentenced!” has become an educational tool that is garnering rave reviews in homes, classrooms and educational facilities around the world and is now staged to reach a brand new audience. McNeill Designs for Brighter Minds, the game manufacturer, will officially introduce the “You’ve been Sentenced! Country Music Edition” to entertain the country music fan at the June 7 gathering. The anticipated retail delivery date for the country music version is August 2012—just in time for Christmas retail delivery.
To expand its mission further, McNeill Designs hopes to align in mutually beneficial relationships with artists, additional non-profit foundations and organizations that also have language and literacy objectives.
