Holladay card drive

Ryan HolladayWe posted in late October with news of the devastating fire that gutted the home of young banjo picker Ryan Holladay. Fortunately, neither of Ryan’s parents (Mark and Lisa Holladay) were hurt, nor was his sister, Hannah. Ryan was not at home when the fire broke out.

To help them have a merrier Christmas this year, Dixie Hall and Penni McDaniel (Hope River Entertainment) are spearheading a Christmas Gift Card Drive for the Holladay family. All of their personal belongings were destroyed in the fire, and Dixie and Penni are hoping that bluegrass folks will purchase gift cards from large retailers and send them along with a Christmas wish.

Gift cards in any denomination will be welcome, and surely gratefully received by the Holladays. Send them directly to the family at:

The Holladay Family
124 S. Forrest Avenue
Camden, TN 38320
