Series has raised more than a half of a million pounds of food for the San Antonio Food Bank

The popular Live Music Series at The County Line, benefiting the San Antonio Food Bank, returned to the stage on Wednesday, March 16, 2011.

Now in its 11thyear, the music series has featured some of the very best Texas and national country musicians such as Cory Morrow, Randy Rogers, Jason Boland, Roger Creager, Wade Bowen, Pat Green, Aaron Watson, Radney Foster, Kevin Fowler, Bleu Edmondson, and many more.  Sponsors for the music series are KAJA-97, U.S. Disposal, Comfort-Air Engineering and Primo
Plumbing, Red Bull and Ozarka®.

The free music concerts benefiting the San Antonio Food Bank are held every Wednesday night from 6:30 – 10 p.m. through October 26 at The County Line Bar-B-Q restaurant at 10101 IH-10 West (between the Wurzbach and Huebner Road exits, near the Colonnade). Held on the restaurant's open-air patio, the opening act comes on at 6:30 p.m.; the headliner plays from 8 – 10 p.m. Concerts
are held rain or shine.

“We’re looking forward to another successful year of this free music series, started 11 years ago by Randy Goss,” says Mike Crenwelge, General Manager, County Line. “Over the years, people who love country music and barbecue have truly showed where their heart is with their generous donations of food and money to the San Antonio Food Bank. Let’s continue to make Randy proud.”

The live music series is free; however, all who attend are asked to make a food or monetary donation to the San Antonio Food Bank. The 2010 music series raised more 52,640 pounds of food for the Food Bank.

“The San Antonio Food Bank is extremely grateful to have this continued partnership with County Line B-B-Q again this year,” said Eric Cooper, President/CEO, San Antonio Food Bank.  “Since we began this partnership 11 years ago, we have collected more than 530,000 pounds of food that has helped feed thousands of hungry individuals each week in Southwest Texas.  Randy’s legacy of helping others and fighting hunger continues to remain strong through this wonderful partnership.”
