FRS hosts fundraising events at most of the large NTCA meetings. The tickets and sponsorships for these events help us increase the visibility of FRS and raise funds for our programs. Attending these events is a great way to have fun in an informal setting while also supporting FRS activities that benefit rural communities and the people who live there.
Live Country Music on the Cumberland River: An Evening Cruise with FRS Aboard the General Jackson Showboat
$195 per person
$1000 – Reserved Table for Ten
$1500 – Front Row Reserved Table for Ten
Limited availability. Table reservations do not include entry to the event. Tickets are sold separately.
Join the Foundation for Rural Service (FRS) for a signature evening celebrating rural America — set against the rolling waters of the Cumberland River and Nashville skyline aboard the legendary General Jackson Showboat.
As the sun sets over the Nashville skyline, guests will enjoy an exclusive buyout cruise featuring complimentary beer and wine, a full spread of food (including salmon and brisket), and a live 5-piece country western band.
The night's entertainment features Nashville-based country artist Dylan Gerard — a Season 13 competitor on NBC's The Voice, where his blind audition turned two chairs and landed him on Team Adam Levine. Known for blending traditional country roots with soulful rock-influenced songwriting, Dylan brings his full 5-piece band to our event.
Round out the night with country western stage décor, a guest photo opportunity, and a one-of-a-kind boot and cowboy hat branding experience.
Proceeds from the evening support FRS programs that fund scholarships, community grants, and youth programming in rural America.
