Robert Cray

Open ears and an open mind are the essence of singer, guitarist and songwriter Robert Cray's approach to writing, recording and playing music. He has created a sound that rises from American roots and arrives today both fresh and familiar. In just over 40 years Cray and his band have recorded 20 studio releases, 15 of which have been on the Billboard charts, and played bars, concert halls, festivals and arenas around the world. There are five Grammys with Cray's name on them, and he has a suitcase full of W.C. Handy blues awards. Four years ago Cray was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame.

The Boys & Girls Club of Cocoa

“Every year, Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Florida serves over 13,000 at risk children between the ages of six and eighteen,” said Mike Arnold, Rotary Club of Cocoa fundraising chair.“The Rotary Club of Cocoa has essentially adopted the Cocoa Branch with Rotary members volunteering their time and talents to support these children.”According to Arnold, the Cocoa Branch of the Boys & Girls Club serves nearly 100 kids a day during the school year and summer for both after school and summer break program.“This organization is so important to the youth in this county. We hope the Brevard community will support this event which in turn will support our local Boys & Girls Clubs,” added Arnold.

Rotary is a worldwide organization of more than 1.2 million business, professional and community leaders. Members of Rotary Clubs, known as Rotarians, provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations and help to build goodwill and peace in the world.
