 Nashville, TN. (Top40 Charts/ RCA Records) - Chuck Wicks went back to his hometown of Smyrna, Delaware on Saturday and took the time to give back to the community where he was raised. Wicks performed for the Smyrna-Clayton community in a benefit concert at the Smyrna High School auditorium in an effort to raise money for the Smyrna-Clayton Boys & Girls Club, which is housed in an old building in desperate need of repairs. The sold out show was a success! Debbie Wicks, the Smyrna School District's superintendent and Chuck Wicks' aunt, said 'We made over $25,000 for the club's capital renovations. That seed money will help us get the detailed plans done to start on the $1,000,000 worth of badly needed repairs.' Unit Director, Trisha Moses commented that this was the biggest fundraiser the organization has ever had! Chuck said in an interview with the Smyrna-Clayton Sun Times, he would like to come back to Smyrna every year and do a benefit concert. 'As long as people want to come out I'll keep coming back. Part of me misses Smyrna. I'm going back to the community that raised me. I want to help out with the Boys & Girls Club. Hopefully, I can continue to do so. It's cool to be a part of that.'
