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 />

<strong>Chamber</strong> strongly believes in,” <strong>Beach</strong> <strong>Chamber</strong><br />

President & CEO, Beth Oltman, comments.<br />

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

to contribute to that, we can have a part in<br />

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

with great food, delectable wine, andencouragement,<br />

as the destiny <strong>of</strong> our students can<br />

be brighter with the help <strong>of</strong> this fundraiser.”<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 />

<strong>Panama</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>Beach</strong> is branded as the #1<br />

tourist destination in the country for our<br />

beautiful summer weather and white, sandy<br />

beaches. The <strong>Panama</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>Beach</strong> Seafood<br />

& Music Festival: UNwineD 2012 will<br />

help make us the #1 tourist destination all<br />

year! The quality <strong>of</strong> entertainment, food,<br />

drinks and attractions are sure to make an<br />

impression on anyone who steps foot on the<br />

festival grounds. <strong>This</strong> five-day, FREE event<br />

will contribute to the <strong>Panama</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>Beach</strong><br />

brand as a great place to live, work and play.<br />

Hope to see you there!<br />
