PRYOR, OK - Due to the massive tornado that hit the town of Picher, OK members of the Rock community have banded together to play a benefit concert Wednesday, July 9th at Rocklahoma. Proceeds are to benefit the victims of a deadly tornado that caused severe damage to this Northeastern Oklahoma town.
Picher, OK at one time with a population of 1,600 was severely affected by a F4 Tornado on May 10, 2008. "There were seven casualties in Picher alone with tornado winds estimated at 165 to 175 miles per hour. The twister was a mile wide at its widest point," National Weather Service meteorologist Mike Teague said. A total of 114 homes were leveled by this deadly tornado.
Dave Giencke, Director of Operations had this to say, "We at Rocklahoma want to give back to our neighboring community of Picher and help the residents rebuild their lives!"
