A HAZZARD FUNDRAISER FOR THE HURLEY HIGH REBELS ON OCTOBER 2nd
https://www.facebook.com/events/1481669115487656/
The national USA Today story about the school spirit at Hurley High School in Buchanan County, Virginia has produced a groundswell of support for that community and their tradition of displaying the Confederate Battle Flag as their school symbol. Their forthright and unapologetic defense of that tradition has set a clear standard for common sense and heartland values in battling the radical cultural cleansing that is sweeping through America. They are supporting us, so let’s support them.
At 7 p.m. on October 2nd, Hazzard County will go to Buchanan County for an old fashioned fundraiser for the Hurley High School Rebels. I’ll be there with Cooter's Garage Band and the General Lee to help raise money for Hurley High’s athletic and educational programs.
It is clear by the language of the USA Today writer that he doesn’t understand the people and the values of the Appalachian South. He calls respect for the Battle Flag “the party line”, and mocks the County as if its citizens are not aware of national politics and different viewpoints. But the people of Buchanan County come across as folks who know the value of community and traditional values. They have “done us all proud.”
As October 2nd gets closer, we’ll be posting more details about the fundraiser and the concert. This will be an opportunity for those of you who live within a few hours of Buchanan County to join in for a good cause. It is also a way of saying “thank you” to a group of real “stand up” citizens. Buchanan borders Kentucky and West Virginia and is in the heart of some beautiful mountains. And it isn’t too far from Hazard, Kentucky!
It will be a great time to fly our Rebel flags with pride.

At Virginia's Hurley High School, the Confederate battle flag is everywhere and means everything.
