Country stars Tim McGraw and Dierks Bentley will headline the 2nd Annual Halfway to Hazard Charity Trail Ride to raise money for Buckhorn Children’s and Family Center in Crockettsville, Kentucky.
The show will be part of a weekend of ATV trail rides on August 22 and 23, and will also feature performances by country duo Halfway To Hazard, Danielle Peck, Gabe Garcia, Bomshell, and Whiskey Falls.
Over 1,000 ATVs are expected to descend on the hills of Southern Kentucky for the event, and appearances will be made by NASCAR legend Kyle Petty, Motorcross great Ricky Carmichael, and music artists Randy Houser, James Otto, Keith Anderson, and Jeremy Popoff.
“Growing up in Eastern Kentucky, riding these trails was a way of life and, along with playing music, our main source of entertainment,” said Halfway to Hazard’s Chad Warrix. “Coupling a ride with a concert where we grew up while being able to give back to our community is a dream come true. Being able to promote our beautiful native region and its amazing people is a huge bonus for us.”
The concert is on Saturday, August 22, with the gates opening at 10 a.m. Bluegrass music will be played live from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Halfway to Hazard and friends take the stage beginning at 6 p.m. The ATV ride will be held Sunday, August 23, with registration beginning at 7:30 a.m. and the ride beginning at 10 a.m. The ride will depart from Crockettsville and travel along the East Kentucky Trail System near Buckhorn.
