Nashville Sounds Donate $10,000 To Flood Recovery

The Nashville Sounds are giving back to those affected by the recent floods by donating $10,000 along with supplies to the communities in and around Humphreys Country. In addition to the monetary donation, the Nashville Sounds Foundation is currently accepting donations via Venmo at @NashvilleSoundsFoundation. The Sounds will also be donating all dog ticket money ($5 per ticket) from the July 27 Tito’s Tail Waggin’ Tuesday game to the Humphreys County Humane Society.

The team accepted donations throughout the recent homestand and will continue to do so until Friday, Sept. 3. Fans can bring items such as diapers, paper towels, batteries, towels, baby formula, and other things to the Club and Suite entrance at First Horizon Park. All items donated will be dropped off at McEwen High School.

“The loss of life and devastation from the recent flooding is tragic,” says Sounds Co-Owner Frank Ward. “The Midstate area has been through a great deal of unfortunate events over the last 18 months and the Nashville Sounds Baseball Club will continue to assist in every way possible. Aside from a monetary donation, rest assured our incredible front office will lend helping hands over the coming weeks and months.”

The Nashville Sounds Front Office will be volunteering their time by assisting in the recovery efforts in Humphreys County and the surrounding areas. Led by award-winning Head Groundskeeper Thomas Trotter, the Sounds’ grounds crew will assist in the rebuilding of numerous baseball fields in the area. Additionally, the Nashville Sounds Foundation has set up an Amazon Wish List for those unavailable to drop off items at the ballpark.
