CMT One Country Partners With Dierks Bentley’s “Miles & Music For Kids”

CMT One Country announced this week that it had parterned up with the Children’s Miracle Network by joining forces with Dierks Bentley’s “Miles & Music For Kids.”

The events are set to take place throughout 2009 and 2010 in Nashville, Tennessee, Bentley’s hometown of Phoenix, Arizona, Seattle, Washington, Atlanta, Georgia, Dallas, Texas and Chicago, Illinois. All proceeds benefiting Children’s Miracle Network hospitals in those areas.

The 2009 kick off event will be held at Nashville’s Riverfront Park on Sunday, October 11th and will once again benefit the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt, a Children’s Miracle Network hospital.

“This event is something that I always look forward to every year because it really brings the Nashville music community together for a great cause,” said Bentley. “CMT has generously offered to help us take it on the road to other communities and pledged to get behind us with an incredible amount of promotional support. There are so many children’s hospitals in the Children’s Miracle Network that need our help, and so we are going to go city by city and reach as many of them as we can together.”

Since Bentley started the program in 2006, he’s helped raise more than half a million dollars for the Children’s Miracle Network.
