I am a huge Bama fan who works for Verizon Wireless and wanted to share some information about a few upcoming events we're holding. Please share with anyone you think would be interested in coming out to support a good cause. Roll Tide!

Javier Arenas, Mike Johnson and John Parker Wilson will meet and greet with fans—signing autographs and taking pictures—at Verizon Wireless stores in Huntsville, Tuscaloosa and Birmingham this Friday, June 10, and Saturday, June 11, to raise additional dollars for the Bama Rising Fund for tornado recovery.

The events are a precursor to "BAMA RISING: A Benefit Concert for Alabama Tornado Recovery," presented by Verizon, which will bring some of country music’s biggest stars to the BJCC Arena Tuesday, June 14.

All three players will appear at:
• The Jones Valley Verizon store at 2762 Carl T. Jones Drive Southeast in Huntsville from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, June 10
• The McFarland Verizon store at 2340 McFarland Boulevard East in Tuscaloosa from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, June 11
• The Wildwood Verizon store at 225 State Farm Parkway in Birmingham from 4 to 6 p.m. Saturday, June 11

In addition to the player meet and greet, attendees will have the chance to enter a random drawing for two tickets to BAMA Rising.

Donations are encouraged but not required. Representatives from the Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham, the philanthropic partner for the concert artists and organizers who established the Bama Rising Fund to support long-term recovery statewide in the wake of the tornadoes, will be on site to collect cash and check donations. There will also be opportunities to donate via credit/debit card and text message.
