Junior Sisk and Ramblers Choice Named Official Ambassadors of Ward Burton Wildlife Foundation

JSRCSteve Johnson of Mountain Music Entertainment and former NASCAR Champion Ward Burton are proud to announce a strategic partnership naming Junior Sisk & Ramblers Choice as the Official Musician Ambassadors of The Ward Burton Wildlife Foundation.

“I am proud to be joining my good friend Ward Burton to support his Foundation," states Sisk. "We are happy to do our part to provide some music and entertainment and carry the message about the good work Ward is doing through this effort. We are honored to be named as the official music ambassadors to the Ward Burton Wildlife Foundation.”

One project offered by the WBWF at The Cove serves military service members who incurred service-connected wounds, injuries, or illnesses and also reaches out their families. Many of those that will participate were wounded during their participation in conflicts such as Operations Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom, and New Dawn as part of the Global War on Terror.

The event is organized to accommodate up to 45 American Heroes and it takes a small army of additional volunteers and guests to make the event possible. All participants are split into multiple groups and assigned a guide from the WBWF to join in a variety of activities.  Each event focuses on an outdoor challenge plus camaraderie at the activity tents, which include refreshments and team-oriented programs. At the end of the day, participants, guests, and volunteers will meet at the main tent for a delicious catered meal and entertainment from Junior Sisk and Ramblers Choice.

“I am extremely excited to be partnering with my friend Junior Sisk," states Burton. “This is a great opportunity to raise awareness about The Foundation around the world with Junior’s tour schedule, and to also further support our partnership for future opportunities together. We look forward to great things to come with our racing and Foundation efforts. ”

“Folks can help us make our special events for our Military Veterans, children, and adults a reality and help touch the lives of those folks thru donations," continues Burton. "Full details on sponsorship levels and opportunities can be obtained by contacting us through the WBWF website at www.twbwf.org. We know our relationship with Junior will help spread the message about the good work we are doing."
