The 8th Annual Homecoming Golf Tournament and Concert Raises $514,000
Jamey Johnson’s 8th annual Homecoming event on October 6-7, 2019, was presented by Nikki Mitchell Foundation. The event began with a morning golf tournament at Cottonwood Golf Club and an evening concert at the Biscuits Stadium, both in Montgomery, AL.
Celebrity golfers included PGA professionals John Daly and Boo Weekley. The tournament featured a variety of unique events, such as an archer and ball launcher, win a car with a hole in one, costumes and food cooked on the course. The winning team was Tootsies, lead by Steve Smith of Nashville.
The concert’s first year at the new location, the Biscuits Stadium, was a huge success. The large size of the stadium allowed the foundation to triple their previous ticket sales, with over 6,000 people attending the concert. The live music included performances by Jamey Johnson, Toby Keith, Kid Rock, Randy Houser, Dennis Quaid, comedian Ron White, Lee Brice, Jerrod Neimann, Sweet Lizzy Project, Ray Scott, Brandon Elder from American Idol, Whatley and Co. and the Down Home Boys.
Nikki Mitchell Foundation also accepted toy donations for the Montgomery area Marine Toys for Tots and gave them a check for $5,000. Toys for Tots is another charity close to Jamey Johnson’s heart. Overall, Nikki Mitchell Foundation raised $514,000, which will go to their mission to prevent, detect and cure pancreatic cancer.
