Coppock-Hole
Trust Sponsors DCCA Special Event
Riders In The Sky Salute Roy Rogers
Darke County Center for the Arts thanks the Coppock-Hole Trust for
sponsoring the 2016-2017 “CONNECTIONS“ season and the upcoming special
event Riders In The Sky Salute Roy Rogers, Saturday, November 12th 8
p.m. concert at St. Clair Memorial Hall and their longstanding and
generous support of the arts in Darke County. “DCCA is grateful for the
continued generosity of the Coppock-Hole Trust, which provide
opportunities for cultural enrichment in our community,” stated Andrea
Jordan, DCCA Executive Director. The Coppock-Hole Trust has been a
sponsor of DCCA programs for over 30 years as well as supporting the
preservation of the Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall as an important
cultural center. The Saturday show is a salute to Roy Rogers, and
features film clips of Roy's greatest moments on screen as well as the
songs that the western icon made famous; the salute to “The King of the
Cowboys". “DCCA has brought Riders In the Sky to St. Clair
Memorial Hall multiple times for many good reasons; these guys are
extremely talented, present a delightful, fun-filled show representing
the best of American values, and usually sell out the house,” said
Keith Rawlins, DCCA Artistic Director.
According to DCCA officials, Riders in the Sky's “Salute to Roy Rogers,
King of the Cowboys” will trigger memories for those who grew up
idolizing the Ohio native, while introducing new generations to a
wonderful man and artist. In addition to providing fun facts about the
life of the Hollywood star, the performance will highlight Roy Rogers'
influence on a generation of musicians and entertainers.
Sponsors for Riders in the Sky's tribute to Roy Rogers are Coppock-Hole
Trust and Greenville Technology Inc. Additionally, the Ohio Arts
Council helped fund these programs with state tax dollars to encourage
economic growth, educational excellence and cultural enrichment for all
Ohioans. DCCA also receives funding from the Harry D. and Esther
Stephens Memorial, Ketrow Foundation, and Lydia E. Schaurer Memorial
Trust Fund, as well as DCCA memberships.
