Pud Kearns with Housewarmers of Greenville, one of the leaders of the annual Bras for the Cause event, says the kickoff of the 2018 campaign, "Bras Rock," is from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Thursday (August 23) at Landon's Winery in downtown Greenville. Last year, Bras for the Cause raised enough money to make the purchase of a 4-D CT scanner, used in cancer diagnosis, possible for the Hunt Regional Healthcare system.  But this year's event and others for years to come will continue to pay off the $500,000 cost of the device.

John Mark Dempsey is the host of the public interest program The Blacklands Café from KETR News. Dempsey is also the play-by-play announcer for Commerce Tigers Football on 88.9 FM and on ketr.org.
