The legendary Charlie Daniels Band will headline the dinner, during which NewSong also is performing.  The dinner is followed by Thursday’s WBCC’s “no mulligan” golf tournament at Vanderbilt Legends Club with a noon shotgun start featuring 144 golfers across all skill levels.

The WBCC benefits Speedway Children’s Charities, Motor Racing Outreach (MRO) and The Journey Home Project.  In just seven years, the WBCC has raised $2.5 million for various charities.

FOX NASCAR host Shannon Spake and MRO President Billy Mauldin will emcee the Champion’s Dinner Presented by ACLJ.org. Among those already confirmed to attend the dinner are FOX NFL host and Hall of Famer Terry Bradshaw, country artist Craig Morgan, NASCAR owner Rick Hendrick, NASCAR Vice Chairman Mike Helton and NASCAR drivers Denny Hamlin and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Bradshaw’s performance as emcee last year brought down the house and kept guests in stiches throughout the evening.  For a look back at last year’s edition, headlined by Morgan, CLICK HERE.
