Last night we helped event planner Angela Price produce the YMCA of Middle Tennessee's Annual Celebration event at Nashville's Schermerhorn Symphony Center. This is the Y's largest event of the year, and celebrates the many achievements of the YMCA and its Volunteers of the Year. The Symphony Center was the perfect setting for this themed event entitled "In Harmony". The entire center was transformed into themed musical areas with live music and costumed characters. Guests moved through each room to sample the themed cuisine, decor and music. But the real show took place in the Concert Hall where we heard from Journey Johnson, the Y's CEO, and Cal Turner, the Chairman of the Y's Board of Directors and the CEO of Dollar General Stores. Country superstar Vince Gill delighted guests with a special performance of several of his hit songs. One of the highlights was his performance of "Go Rest High", a song written upon the death of his brother. Vince is an incredible artist and a great communicator. Thanks to GMC team members Jim Sheridan, Chris Lyle, Scott Douglas, Jacob Driver, Jonathan Yeaworth, Sean Yeaworth, Jerry Durkin, and Bert Hensley for making this event so successful. The staff of the Schermerhorn was also extremely helpful, especially event manager Julie Campbell. Great job everyone! This was our first time to produce a show at the Schermerhorn...I hope we will have many more opportunities to perform there in the future!
