ROCK
for RATNA! began with its First Annual
Benefit Concert Thursday July 10th,
2008. This benefit
featured acoustic performances by local and
national musicians Carey Colvin, Ibby
Cline, and Lee Johnson in the intimate setting of the
Rock &
Soul Café at 5290 Arapahoe Ave., Ste. I in
Boulder. Tickets were $25 - $30. A lovely
time was had by all with good attendance for an
inaugural benefit event! Net proceeds from this event
went directly to expanding services for Ratna’s
clients.

rock-edged pop, and pop-influenced contemporary
folk. She received the 2000 Wammie™ Award for Debut Recording of
