Jimmy Jones Golf Classic Fundraiser

Jimmy was in a rollover truck accident when he was 17, which has
left him paralyzed and in a wheelchair. Jimmy never gave up hope
for an awesome life. He has completed a college education, works
for a living, and enjoys life to the fullest. Jimmy has been a positive
influence on everyone he is around. Rain or shine, he gets up and
goes to work. He is never heard to say “Why Me?” or complain
about his life. Jimmy’s mobility is dependent on a custom motorized
wheelchair and modified vehicle. He has limited movement in his
hands and is required to be in his chair at all times. Jimmy’s
current van has been used for many years with daily trips to work
from Tremonton to Ogden. The van is worn out, on its last leg, and
it’s time for a new vehicle! Along with a new vehicle with many
custom modifications, a new motorized customized wheelchair is
required. As you can imagine it is very costly to replace the van
and wheelchair. All proceeds and monies donated will go
towards Jimmy getting a new truck that will be fitted to his
wheelchair. Please join us in helping out a great guy! Call Kathie 801-726-0736 for more info!

Run Boy Run Summer Concert at Ogden Nature Center

From runboyrunband.com:

Existing comfortably in the tension between tradition and the musical frontier, Run Boy Run‘s all-acoustic format blends bluegrass, folk and the old timey American vernacular with touches of classical and jazz. Their music is rooted in the traditional music of the Appalachian South, but is also definitively present in the 21st century.

Box dinners from Union Grill are available and must be reserved by June 11th at 3:00pm

Gates open at 6:00pm. For tickets and more information, visit www.ogdennaturecenter.org or call 801.621.7595
