TOT also has many national country acts coming to town including Diamond Rio on Saturday, March 18th, Chase Rice on Thursday, April 6th and Easton Corbin on Saturday, April 21st.

As great as all of this is, I really like how they open their doors to help out those that need it in our community. They hold many benefits at TOT including Super Cooper Saves the Day and the Cooperpalooza Carnival on March 11th.
