The 3rd annual Recovery at the River was a big success thanks to attendees, beautiful weather, delicious food and an outstanding guest speaker. Dennis Parker, a member of Ricky Skaggs' band Kentucky Thunder, shared his moving testimonial with everyone who enjoyed the event at Ditto Landing Sunday, October 20, 2024.

Dennis is a Grammy award winner for his guiitar, mandolin and vocal work on Ricky Scaggs' Bluegrass Rules album. Dennis has also played with Leann Womack, Tracy Lawrence, Joe Diffie, Mark Chestnutt, and others.

His recording project "Songs Under the Air Conditioning Unit" is a dramatic true life story of his own battle with alcoholism and the path to grace. Dennis says the project is a testimony of how God amazingly extends His love to the broken. 

Individuals from ALL pathways to recovery, along with friends, family and recovery allies, were invited to enjoy inspirational stories, delicious BBQ, refreshments, games and live music. 
We also gave away life-saving drug naloxone.
