George Strait will host a benefit to help those impacted by devastating floods in Texas.

The legendary, Texas-born country artist shared details about the event, titled Strait To The Heart: A Benefit for Hill Country Flood Victims, on Friday (July 11). Strait will headline the benefit with members of Ace in the Hole Band. The lineup also includes William Beckmann, Ray Benson, Wade Bowen, Dean Dillon, Riley Green, Randy Houser, Jamey Johnson, Kyle Park and Hudson Westbrook.

“The destruction and loss in our community from the recent floods is hard to wrap your head around. Our hearts and prayers are with you all. The goal with this event is to raise meaningful, immediate support that can be put directly into the hands of flood victims without delay, while also honoring the first responders that work tirelessly to save lives. Special thanks to our friends and fellow troubadours…for joining me on stage to lend their talent and their hearts to this mission.”

Strait To The Heart: A Benefit for Hill Country Flood Victims will take place on Sunday, July 27 in Boerne, Texas. Donations will be collected and distributed by 501c3 Vaqueros del Mar Texas Flood Relief Fund, per Strait’s announcement. Those interested should email Vaquerosdm@gmail.com with ticket inquiries.

I had no idea that there's a small plaque in the ground at the very summit of Denali! It shows up pretty well near the end of this video.

This next video focuses more on a ski descent of Denali.
