Umatilla
County Fair Board donated $2,200
to our local chapter of the National MS
Society in honor of Clay Walker. The $2,200 came from the reserve
seating ticket sales for the Clay
Walker that were not refunded.
Clay Walker had to cancel at the last minute do to the birth of his
child. Tickets were refunded in cash with the help of Columbia River
Bank, during the fair to those requesting a refund.
We would like to extend a big Thank you to all
the people who did not request a refund. With out them this donation
would never been possible. We would like to also thank Columbia
River Bank for all they did in making this possible.
Again a big Thank
you to all you Clay Walker fans for helping
our local Multiple Sclerosis Society.
