Our guest this morning is Karah Woesner, co-founder of Betty’s Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization benefiting Alzheimer’s disease research.

Karah and her brother Clint started the Foundation to raise money for Alzheimer’s research through music. Their Grandma Betty’s connection to music stayed with her as she advanced in the stages of the disease. Even in the late stages, when she could no longer speak or perform basic physical functions, her eyes would still light up to a song and she would still tap her feet to a beat.

Betty’s Foundation hosts an annual roots music festival called ‘Remember the Music’ which will take place on Saturday, September 23 at Ernie Howlett Park in conjunction with the 60th Anniversary Celebration for the City of Rolling Hills Estates.

This ALL AGES music festival features roots inspired contemporary bands including Branches, Ruby Force, Elijah Ocean, The Hopeful Giants, and Earthworm Ensemble.

Attendees can set up blankets and chairs on the general admission lawn or listen in style under the VIP tent and enjoy local brews by Smog City, The Dudes', HopSaint, Yorkshire Square, and wine from Rebel Coast Winery.

Food will be available for purchase from Mesohungrytruck, Thai-Mex Cocina, The Grilled Cheese Truck, and Kona Ice. There will be arts and crafts, a silent auction, pony rides, petting zoo, hay jumping pit, equestrian events, and more.

The City Celebration begins at 9:00 a.m. and the live music starts at 1:30 and will run through 7:30 p.m.
