will equally benefit the FRLA Educational<br />
Foundation ProStart Schools (Rutherford,<br />
Bay, Mosley and Arnold High School) and<br />
the <strong>Chamber</strong>’s Education Fund. “Education<br />
for today’s youth is something the <strong>Beach</strong><br />

“If we can use this amazing event<br />

someone’s future. <strong>This</strong> evening will be filled<br />

Friday, October 26 and Saturday, October<br />
27 will be the premier festival. All music entertainment<br />
will be from BMI management.<br />
Two outstanding bands are scheduled<br />
for both nights to put on enthusiastic and<br />
crowd-pleasing performances. The LoCash<br />
Cowboys from Nashville, TN will grace the<br />
stage on Friday night where their energy<br />
will stay at peak the entire time. A band<br />
<strong>of</strong> two, LoCash has sold more than 60,000<br />
copies <strong>of</strong> their homemade albums and have<br />
written songs for some <strong>of</strong> Nashville’s biggest<br />
names. They co-wrote Keith Urban’s 2011<br />
single, “You Gonna Fly” and Tim McGraw’s<br />
2012 single, “Truck Yeah.” Saturday night’s<br />
performer, and a close friend with LoCash<br />
Cowboys, is the Jeffrey Steele Band. Jeffrey<br />
Steele has been recognized<br />
by BMI for<br />
his amazing country<br />
and pop songwriting<br />
capabilities. His<br />
country and A/C<br />
mega-hits include:<br />
“Knee-Deep,” “My<br />
Wish,” “The Cowboy<br />
in Me” and the<br />
Jeffrey Steele<br />
groundbreaking “What Hurts the Most.”<br />
A variety <strong>of</strong> other BMI songwriter performances<br />
will be appearing throughout both<br />
days to keep up the musical spirit.<br />
The Luxury Lounge is what awaits you<br />
once inside the festival grounds. Food and<br />
wine from the most desirable restaurants in<br />
<strong>Panama</strong> <strong>City</strong>, as well as a variety <strong>of</strong> demonstrations,<br />
will have you wanting to get under<br />
the tent for a truly palatable experience.<br />
“The Luxury Lounge is where everyone<br />
will want to be,” says Oltman. “We want<br />
everyone to have an unforgettable experience,<br />
and not miss out on all the fantastic<br />
food and wine.” At the VIP section in<br />
the Luxury Lounge there will be food and<br />
wine tastings available for FREE all night,<br />
including VIP stage front seating for the<br />
LoCash Cowboys and Jeffrey Steele Band<br />
performances. Local vendors, car shows,<br />
community performers and children’s activities<br />
will captivate the festival grounds<br />
surrounding the Luxury Lounge. And let’s<br />
not dismiss the natural surroundings <strong>of</strong> the<br />
event: bayfront views and beautiful sunsets<br />
will captivate visitors and residents alike.<br />
