NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Folds of Honor Tennessee raised over $65,000.00 at the 2nd Annual ROCK N’ JOCK CELEBRITY SOFTBALL GAME last week at Nashville Sounds’ First Horizon Park. Popular singer/songwriter HARDY took home MVP honors, while several first-time players displayed their athleticism during the 9-inning game that featured artist, pro and Olympic athletes. The game was extended to 9 innings after Lunchbox from The Bobby Bones Show asked the crowd to use the QR code on the screen to donate for players to play 9 innings. Team Budweiser (the white team) won 24-18.
“On behalf of myself and the Folds of Honor Tennessee board of directors, we cannot thank the talent, volunteers, media, and fans enough for helping us make Rock ‘N Jock 2022 a huge success! It’s truly humbling to see the Nashville community embrace the Folds of Honor mission. We can’t wait to see what year three brings for this event,” states Folds of Honor Tennessee Executive Director Jenner Kreifels.
Scholarship recipient Christian Meza gave a heartfelt and passionate speech to the crowd prior to the first ball.
