Country music benefit night for Yvonne’s medical journey
Music by Joe Davitt
A NIGHT of music, fun and dancing is promised when a Backroad Bash takes place on Saturday in Ballinkillen Community Centre. The night has been organised by family members of Yvonne Geoghegan, a young woman from Bagenalstown who is living with a particularly aggressive form of multiple sclerosis.
Yvonne has been accepted onto a treatment programme in Mexico and needs to raise about €80,000 to cover costs. Her family and friends have been working tirelessly to raise the money and the country music night is just the latest in a series of fundraisers that they’ve organised. The gig will feature country artist Joe Devitt and guests, with raffle prizes up for grabs.
The Backroad Bash starts at 8pm, with tickets costing €20.
