In 1986, The Seekers were formed by the collective efforts of Billy and Mike
Hamilton and Kathy and William Smith. It was the desire of each member to
always seek the will of the Lord, seeking lost souls, trying to be more like Him.
The Seekers have ministered in most of the eastern states over the years and
have recorded 11 projects with two songs charting the top 20 in the Singing
News magazine and two songs making the top 40. The Seekers also had the
distinct honor being named in the Gospel Voice top 10 finalist for the 1995 and
1996 Diamond Awards, in the Sunrise Award division.

Stronger for It derives their name from 2 Corinthians 12:9 with the belief that in
our times of weakness we are made strong if only we will depend on GODS all
sufficient grace. The group encourages the church, and wants to help the lost to
find Christ, and magnify the Lord Jesus Christ till he comes again.  The group
consists of Bonnie Wilson, Rodney Wilson, and Brittney Lewis. When life seems
to drag you down, know that for a Child of God you are never alone. With Gods
help you will become Stronger for It!

The Bowers Family has been a family ministry for many years. Kenneth and Don
Bowers grew up singing southern gospel music with their Dad, Walter Bowers.
The family heritage of southern gospel music is still being carried on today and
enjoyed by the group. The Bowers Family consists of Kenneth Bowers, singing
lead, Don Bowers’s singing tenor, and the newest member of the group David
Cochran singing baritone. Our greatest goal is to see souls born again into the
kingdom of God.

Tennessee Harmony, if there's one group whose name inspires thoughts of
pure, passionate, solid and true music, its Tennessee Harmony. They've
encouraged and uplifted listeners with their unique style since the conception of
the group in 1992. Tennessee Harmony has charted several top 80 songs.
Currently, they have two singles on the charts, “Jesus What A Savior” is at #67
for the month of September the current single “Love One Another” is #17
across the nation on the top 100 charts for October. They were recently named
Gospel Music Tour’s “Quartet of the Year” for 2008. The heart of Tennessee
Harmony is to sing with inspiration, share with compassion, and be examples of
true witnesses for Christ.

Also enjoy the exciting exhibits from the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency,
Tennessee Highway Patrol, Tennessee Department of Transportation, Governors
Highway Safety office and the Cleveland Fire Department.

We look forward to seeing you there at this Great community event!
