On Saturday, August 14, Greece American Legion held its 10th Annual Warrior Benefit Concert. All previous guests of honor were invited back and 16 attended, including last year’s guest of honor RPD Officer Denny Wright. A large escort of motorcycles, cars, jeeps, and first response vehicles along with the guests, traveled from Ferris Goodridge American Legion Post #330 on Trimmer Road in Spencerport to the Greece American Legion Post #468 on Dorsey Road led by police escort. Proceeds from the concert went to New York Warrior Alliance and Help on the Home Front; both organizations have set a standard for helping veterans. Checks of $8,000 were presented to each organization during the concert. Many of the guests of honor brought family members and spoke about how much these organizations have meant to them. Seven bands performed at the outdoor concert, including 7th Heaven, Knight Patrol, Kid Kurry, The Dean’s List, and others. There were also various raffles, food, and drinks.
