Triple Threat Against Cancer

09/03/2008
. (PR) With the "Triple Threat Tour" still going strong, the members of Little Texas and Restless Heart are joining Henry Paul and Blackhawk in raising funds to benefit the Van Stephenson Memorial Cancer Research Fund (the V.S.M.C.R.F.) with a "Triple Threat Dinner & Auction" in Spokane, Washington, September 21, 2008.

The charity was formed to honor the last wishes of founding BLACKHAWK member Van Stephenson after he lost his battle with Melanoma Cancer in 2001. For the last few years, BlackHawk has raised money in various ways, including several Vsmcrf Dinner & Auctions, where the fans are invited to have dinner with the band members before a concert and bid on special band auction items. Members of all three bands will be attending the dinner in Spokane and are donating band memorabilia for the auction.

According to Henry Paul, "This year, Van's charity was dealt a small setback. With Dave Robbins departure from the band, a significant effort was put into reforming the group so that Blackhawk could go forward. This pushed our charity effort back a spot, but with the group back in full swing an ALL OUT effort is being waged this fall to reach our annual goal.

"We're getting help from Little Texas and Restless Heart at our Spokane, Washington, Triple Threat date this year. It's our first multiple group dinner and auction, and our first one west of the Mississippi, and we are quite excited about it."
