Known for their rich harmonies and timeless hits such as "Meet in the Middle" and "One More Day," Grammy Award-winning Diamond Rio is set to deliver a memorable performance that will resonate with fans of all ages. The concert will kick off at 5:30 pm MT, starting with local band Sweet Briar, followed by the charity auction at 7 pm. Diamond Rio will return to finish the evening  at 8:15 pm.

The auction will offer a large selection of items to bid on, from sports memorabilia to jewelry, and children’s toys. DAA of Idaho and local community members donated all the items.

“This event is a great way to thank our customers with an evening filled with live music, delicious food, and refreshing drinks," said Owner Russ Smith in a news release. "It's the perfect opportunity for families, friends, and country music lovers to come together for a night of fun and philanthropy."

DAA of Idaho features a different country musician or group each year at its charity fundraiser. Last year, country musician and singer Joe Nichols (3rd from L) performed.

Proceeds from the charity auction will benefit several non-profit organizations, including Kuna Youth Sports, JDRF, Personal Ponies Idaho, and Operation Grateful Hearts. These charities play vital roles in the community, from supporting youth sports programs and funding diabetes research to providing therapeutic ponies for children with special needs and supporting veterans and their families.

"In previous years, this event has raised up to $30,000, and our goal is to exceed that amount this year, amplifying the positive impact on these deserving causes," said Kyle Egbert, general manager of DAA of Idaho.
