SpiritBank Event Center teamed up with Shamrock Communications, Savastano's Pizzeria and Roadwork Entertainment to create a benefit concert for Adalyn Grace Statum this Friday.

Adalyn was born in June 7th with a major heart defect and remains in critical care. Adalyn was diagnosed with Transposition of the Greater Vessels and a ventricular septal defect (a hole in the heart).

Adalyn has had two surgeries including open-heart surgery to repair the vessels. She has also had a cardiac cauterization and two stents inserted to help relieve pulmonary hypertension.

The surgeries went well, but her recovery has been challenging. The money raised from this event will go directly back to the Statum family to help pay for continued medical care.

The concert startes at 7 and The David Dover Band, Sextion 8 and two Edge Homegrown Bands will be performing live at SBEC.

A silent auction and pool tournament will be hosted along with outdoor entertainment at Savastano's Pizzeria starting at 7 p.m.

Auction items will include but not limited to autographed memorabilia, concert tickets, sporting event tickets and much more.

Tickets for this event are free with a suggested donation of $5. Tickets will be available at the door the day of the event. For more information about this event please visit www.spiritbankeventcenter.com or call (918) 369-9360.

The American Red Cross will also be hosting a blood drive at SBEC from 2-7 p.m.
