Police Dispatcher Benefit Swings In Crowd
Around 75 people gathered in Town and Country Friday evening for the Wild, Cool, & Swingin' benefit concert for the family of late police dispatcher Lisa O'Brien.
Friday evening, nine-piece '60s Las Vegas style band Wild, Cool, & Swingin' took the stage at Parkway United Church of Christ with Dean Christopher, Carolbeth True, and Valarie Tichacek. It was night of fun, but for a very serious cause. The musicians performed to help raise money to benefit the family of late dispatcher, Lisa O'Brien.
