January 4, 2011 BMI partnered with Jim Beam and KMO Country in Elizabethtown, KY, to raise funds for Operation Homefront’s “Holiday Meals for the Military” program. BMI enlisted the support of hit singer/songwriter Wynn Varble and his band Refried Howdy for a special event at Fergie’s Bar and Grill. The event generated over $1,000 for the program, which distributed over 1000 holiday meals to military families last week at Fort Hood in Killeen, Texas; Fort Campbell in Kentucky and Great Lakes Naval Base in Waukegan, Illinois. Pictured after the event are Mike Beam, Southern Wine and Spirits of Kentucky; Wynn Varble; Sarah Hart, Sales Manager of KMO; BMI’s Mason Hunter; and Dale Thornhill, COO of KMO parent company Commonwealth Broadcasting.
