Loaded Toad, Speedwell, Reddog Towery and Friends, Project X, Special Edition and Ruff and Ready played at Rogers Park. A bank account has also been set up at Tryon Federal Bank under the name Emorie E. Whitman. Mary Prioleau also sold special event T-shirts (below) at Tryon House and at the benefit.
