CONYERS, GA – February 21, 2012 – Elks Aidmore is pleased to announce the inaugural Elks Aidmore Music Festival, a Blues and Jazz Music Festival that will be held Saturday, April 28, 2012 at Georgia International Horse Park in Conyers, GA. The music festival will serve as a fundraising event for Elks Aidmore while raising awareness of the challenges and opportunities of children that are in foster care.
“We believe that an informed public is an empowered community. While we have put together a music festival that will feature all live music and can rival any in Atlanta, its primary purpose is to bring awareness to the plight of children that are in foster care,” said Elks Aidmore’s CEO, Abe Wilkinson.
