“Beatles” invading Howe this month for scholarship fundraiser

hard-nightOn Saturday, September 19, The Beatles, er um, Hard Night’s Day, will invade Howe High School and perform a benefit concert for the Howe Ex-Students Association.

This is taking place on the same weekend of the All-School Reunion on Saturday night at 7:30.  All of the proceeds of the concert go to the scholarship fund for the Howe Ex-Students Association.

Back in 2010, the committee hired Kraig Parker to perform at Howe High School and the Elvis impersonator helped bring enough people to fund the scholarship for five years.

David Griffin was the latest recipient for the scholarship. The qualifications to receive the funds are that an application must be turned in along with a summary of what Howe means to them. The recipient must also be at least a second generation Howe ISD student.

Hard Night’s Day is a popular Beatles tribute band from the Dallas area and play all over the metroplex and beyond.

Tickets are $25 and can be purchased at Independent Bank in Howe.

The concert is sponsored by Howe Family Dentistry, Team Bonner Chevrolet, Independent Bank in Howe, Jeff Williams – Mayor of Arlington, TX, Nortex Field Services, and JD’s Babbitt Bearings.
