Charlie West Blues Fest

From Charlie West Blues Fest Website:

The West Virginia Blues Society is excited to announce the return of its rockin' annual event, the Charlie West Blues Fest (CWBF), Friday, May 16th and Saturday, May 17th, 2014. This great event, which has gained national attention throughout its six year history, will play host to some of the most talented and up-and-coming blues artists in the country and from around the world.

The CWBF is an annual event dedicated to support wounded service members through the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP)--a nonprofit organization whose mission is to honor and empower wounded warriors. Each year, tens of thousands of wounded warriors receive support through the WWP programs and services which include stress recovery programs, career and education services, adaptive sporting activities and retreats. Not only does each program and service provide warriors with the necessary components to survive their injuries but also to thrive and achieve both personal and professional success. Through nurturing, encouragement, empowerment and engagement, the WWP has helped thousands of our service men and women.

The Charlie West Blues Fest is a tribute to our military and their families. With an economic impact of more than $1M, crowds that exceed 25,000, and donations to the WWP of more than $10,000 last year, the CWBF is a win-win for everyone involved. Donations are always accepted and sponsorship packages are available for budgets of all sizes.
