Week 14 of 15:

The news on August 10th of the shootings from Fredericton, NB that took four innocent lives including two police officers who dedicated their lives to protecting others was shocking and traumatizing to all across the country let alone the Maritimes.

As always, when tragedies occur in Canada or elsewhere in the world, musicians step up. Artists of all genres offer their social platforms to rally support or draw attention to the needs and donate their time to perform. On Saturday, October 6th, The Fredericton Strong Benefit Concert at the Aitken Centre will feature among others David Myles, Ria Mae, Matt Mays, Classified, Tebey and our own, Madeline Merlo.

All proceeds will be donated to three key support services who helped those impacted immediately and will continue to service the community as they work towards recovery. The Canadian Red Cross in New Brunswick, The Chalmers Foundation and The Canadian Mental Health Association of New Brunswick.

Our friends at NewCap Broadcasting and Bell Media have been key to organizing, supporting and promoting this event to keep .

As part of Open Road’s 15 acts of kindness we will be joined by our good friends and associates at The Feldman Agency in purchasing a block of 26 tickets for affected family members and first responders to attend the concert.

Week 13 of 15:

Small farming towns in the prairies contribute greatly to Canada’s wider economy and are often a story line in country music.

'Born & Raised' by the Hunter Brothers is a perfect example of this idea. J.J, Dusty, Luke, Brock and Ty from Shaunavon, Saskatchewan grew up farming, playing hockey and singing gospel and country music.

The brothers are preparing new music to release this Fall and the RGK / Open Road team could not be more excited.

On August 3rd, Hunter Brothers played the annual Winkler Harvest Festival & Exhibition in Manitoba and the next day participated in the CCI Harvest for Kids fundraising effort to break the world record for “most harvester combines working simultaneous in a single field” which they did, 303 of them!! Congratulations!

The effort raised funds for CCI (Children’s Camps International) and as part of Open Road’s 15 Acts of Kindness we are donating money to ccicamps.com to sponsor a camp!

Week 10 of 15: Had a very rewarding visit last week to Antigonish, NS for Special Olympics Canada.

So inspired by the joy of so many athletes representing their provinces in the various sporting events. The teamwork, talent and competitive spirit was fantastic and they were energized by the crowds cheering them on.

Very fortunate to meet Dr Frank Hayden whose research and efforts with the Kennedy Foundation 50 years ago started the first Special Olympics in Chicago. He and his wife Marion continue to be great ambassadors to the games.

Our family friend, star aquatics athlete and country music fan Emily Boycott swam some great races and ended up with two silver medals for Ontario. Congratulations Emily!

A very enjoyable and touching day where I was able to present a $1500 cheque as part of to the lovely Sharon Bollenbach, CEO of Special Olympics Canada. Well done to Sharon, her team and the folks of Antigonish! - Ron
