Comedy on the Cumberland provides post-flood assistance to local branch of the American Red Cross
July 22, 2010
The Second Comedy on the Cumberland benefit has come and gone. The charity event held on Tuesday evening brought five very funny comedian to Clarksville; raising over $4,000 to help the local chapter of the American Red Cross start on their own road to recovery after the Great Flood of 2010.
Interim CEO Randy Weddle related how they were affected by the flooding. “The flood of 2010 affected your Red Cross just as it did so many citizens of the county and surrounding areas. We had about three feet of water that came through our building, but you would never know it by the way that our strong hearted volunteers responded to the needs of our citizen”. The Red Cross spent a lot of money and expended a lot of their resources, helping local residents during the May 2010 flooding.

The newest being on June 30th, 2010 with the opening of the Clarksville area’s seventh Wendy’s Restaurant located at 1824 Tiny Town Road.
The designers of the restaurant planned a return to the casual elegance that Dave Thomas intended for the franchise when he opened the original Wendy’s in Columbus Ohio back in 1969. Their newest restaurant features warm earth tones, a carpeted dining room, tiled floors, and textured two toned walls, frosted glass partitions, tin roofed ceilings in the restrooms, and the Dave Thomas memorial wall. There is a nice comfortable atmosphere which you can feel right away when you step into the dining room.

On Tuesday July 20th, at 7:00pm the Roxy Regional Theatre will host some of the areas funniest comedians who will perform as part of the “Comedy on the Cumberland,” charity event. The proceeds from the event will go to benefit The Clarksville-Montgomery County Chapter of the American Red Cross. Comedy on the Cumberland is the brainchild of Hank Bonecutter, general manager of WJZM 1400 AM radio station, and a comedian.
Proceeds from the July 20th show will go to benefit the Clarksville chapter of the American Red Cross, with proceeds going directly to the local chapter. “The great flood of 2010 not only devastated Clarksville, it also devastated the Red Cross facility on Riverside drive”, said Bonecutter, “While the flood waters have receded, during the flooding the local chapter of the Red Cross put a tremendous amount of their resources into our community, and they are still out there on the front lines helping families in need. So it was a no-brainer for us to do something to help them out, and so our next show is going to be for them”. [Read more]
