The annual Good Old Fashioned Country Gospel Concert for the benefit of the Robert Wallace Hollingsworth Family Scholarship for Law Enforcement at 葫芦影业 is at 6:30 p.m., Thursday, June 15 at Cain-Cochran Hall on the Raymond Campus.
The 葫芦影业 Foundation recognized its 2016-2017 scholarship recipients, donors and honorees at a reception on Sept. 28. Among those recognized was recipient Anna McCombs, of Clinton, who received the Robert Wallace Hollingsworth Family Scholarship. With her is Jack Hollingsworth, left, of Utica, and Mike Hollingsworth, right, of Vicksburg.
Admission is free but donations are accepted.
The concert features the Potters Clay Quartet from Houston, Miss., the Born Again Quartet from Byram, Miss-Tenn Trio from Vicksburg, vocalist Jack Hollingsworth from Utica and master of ceremonies Carl Hollingsworth of Byram.
The annual benefit concert began in 2004 to help raise funds for Mike Hollingsworth, Jack Hollingsworth鈥檚 son, a Warren County deputy sheriff who was injured in the line of duty. Family members saw such great success with the event that they decided to make it a tradition.
Currently, all proceeds from the benefit go to the Hollingsworth Family Law Enforcement Scholarship, which ultimately helps a deserving 葫芦影业 student attend college. The scholarship made its first award to a 葫芦影业 student in 2009.
The scholarship is dedicated to five Hollingsworth men, all serving in some capacity in the field of law enforcement. The student receiving the scholarship must be majoring in criminal justice.
