Gabbystock 2006
 

By LINDA ADAMS
(From the August 30, 2006 issue)
   Gabbystock is over but the benefits will last a long time, so says one of the organizers, Tasha Hughes.
   ‘On behalf of everyone, I’d like to give a big thank you to all who came out and helped make our first annual Gabbystock a huge success,” Hughes said. “At last count we raised over nine thousand dollars and we still have donations coming in. Our biggest thank-you goes to Ronnie and Stephanie Streetman of Gabby’s Track and the four bands who performed.”
   The bands included MileMarker 5, Slaughter Creek, SimonSez and the opening band which was dubed “No-Name Band”.
   Hughes also wants to thank all of the volunteers who donated their time and hard work, and the businesses that donated merchandise for the auction and the raffles and food for the concessions.
   The beneficiaries of Gabbystock include:

 
 
   
JoJo Chapman, who is battling leukemia; Joey Stevens, who received spinal injuries and is still in a neck brace resulting from an automobile accident; and Jonathan Hughes, who also sustained spinal injuries from an accident. Stevens and Hughes both require further reconstructive surgery.
 
       
   T-Shirts for the event are still for sale at the insurance office at IGA from Tasha Hughes. 
   The businesses who contributed include: Planter’s Market, Ellaville Floral & Gift Shop, Chuck Wells, Budweiser, Planters Hardware, Marnie’s Monograms, Millers Home & Auto, Farm Credit, Rob Doll, Brown’s Auto, Honda Kawasaki, Wolf Creek, Buck’s Place Bar & Grill, Depot Car Wash, Tystanic, Kings, M&D Masonry, IGA, Kid’s World, Pizza Place, Flowers Baking Company, Buck J’s, Schley County Volunteer Fire Department, Wrapit, Southern Music Co., MorRite, Belks, Headlines, Carquest, Zoe Eustathiades, Coca Cola, Farmers Furniture, Partners Propane, Ameridor, Sam Roland and Andy Belcher of Scooter’s Trucking, Greenfield, Walls Trucking, and Glover Foods.
