Get Ready to Rock at Battle of the Bands

You knew your fellow coworkers were talented, but did you know they could rock for a cause?

Four bands, each with at least one County employee, and one solo act will compete in a free benefit concert this Friday—the Battle of the Bands! The live showdown is a fundraiser for the March of Dimes, a nonprofit organization that funds research and programs to improve the health of mothers and babies.

This friendly competition pits each of the County groups against each other for musical supremacy. Who will triumph? The creative Community Services Group, folksy Finance and General Government Group, harmonious Health and Human Services Agency, lyrical Land Use & Environment Group, or the powerful Public Safety Group?

Represent your group and donate on the official website now! Fundraising continues through Nov. 25. Supporters can also donate cash at the event.

Awards will be presented to the act that raises the most money for the non-profit organization and to the crowd favorite. It could be one and the same.

The performers will take the big stage at the COC Nov. 20 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
