Wayne Henderson Concert is Sept. 5
Posted By Jim on September 1, 2009
When the 2009 Todd Summer Music Series was being scheduled, series organizers contacted Todd’s good friends, Wayne Henderson and Helen White, to invite them back to Todd once again. Henderson and White spent several weeks this summer touring Europe, making an appearance during the regular six-week series impractical. Thus, the special concert this Saturday, Sept. 5, was born.
Henderson, a retired mail carrier from the rural crossroads of Rugby, Va., and his friend Helen White, have been coming to Todd for the better part of the last decade. Henderson, of course, is world renowned for his top-notch finger picking and guitar making, and White is responsible for starting the Junior Appalachian Musicians program which today enriches the lives of so many mountain area school students.
We hope you’ll join us on Saturday, Sept. 5 for their concert at Cook Park from 2 to 4 p.m. Admission to this special concert is $5. Children 12 and under admitted free. Proceeds help offset the costs of the free music program presented each summer in Todd. For more information, please call 336-877-5401 or email us at info@toddnc.org
