Dolly Helps Nashville This Weekend!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As much as Dolly loves her hometown in the Smokies, Nashville has a part of her heart also.  She has been a Nashville resident for the past 46 years and also considers Nashville her home.  Her love for Music City is just as strong as her love for East Tennessee, Parton says, "I have family and friends in both places, and when one place hurts; I think it is just right for the other to help." And that's just what she's doing!  This upcoming weekend, May 22 & 23, Dolly's Pigeon Forge companies, Dollywood and Dixie Stampede are hosting the "Dolly Helps Nashville" weekend fundraiser.  The net proceeds from the admission to Dollywood and Dixie Stampede will go to a special fund to assist Nashville flood victims. Of course Dolly won't be behind the scenes on this event!  She will be making several special appearances in the park and at the theaters to greet guests who will be visiting for the weekend event.
