For the past five years, the Blitzcreek group has joined volunteers together to raise money for charities by putting on a variety of concerts and events. They bring local and national acts to our area and this year is no exception!

On June 17th, from Noon-10 PM, Blitzcreek will be putting on the Freedom Festival Kickoff Concert on Mays Island in Cedar Rapids. This event is an all day family festival with plenty of live music, food and beer, and activities for the kids! There will be eleven bands playing at the event, including: Royal Bliss, Pullman Standard, The Wayne Hoskins Band, 4 Day Creep, Flex, Lipstick Slick, Luke Harveyson, RMS, A Dead Desire, the Evan Stock Band, and more.

The Festival Kickoff concert will be raising financial support for three veterans groups:
