Grueling Banjos MCA Southwest Rep EJ Bernas will lead his 4th Annual Springtime Stroll on March 18 to benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The event raised $15,000 last year and has collected $30,000 to date. The 100 Yard Walk starts with registration at Dan McGuiness Pub on Nashville's Demonbreun street at 5:30pm and concludes at the Tin Roof. Halfway To Hazard, Jamey Johnson, David Nail and Stoney LaRue and the Arsenal will perform. "Always expect a surprise guest," Bernas says. "No athletic gear allowed." A silent auction is planned, and donations can be sent to Bernas at 401 Commerce St., #1100, Nashville, 37219.
