Montgomery Gentry hosts 1st Country on the Beach

Columbia Nashville recording artist Montgomery Gentry announced that they will host the inaugural “Country on the Beach,” the ultimate beach event for country music fans, scheduled for Dec. 3-6, 2009, at the Beach Palace Resort in Cancun, Mexico, benefiting the T.J. Martell Foundation.

The Country on the Beach “all-inclusive” trip will feature activities such as local tours, celebrity auctions, volleyball, karaoke, a poolside/oceanside clambake, celebrity bartending, spa experiences, water sports, all meals and adult beverages, a celebrity golf tournament at the Riviera Cancun Golf Resort (a Jack Nicklaus Signature Course), private receptions and performances by Montgomery Gentry and special guests.

“We wanted to do something fun to help raise vital dollars for the T.J. Martell Foundation’s mission of funding ground-breaking cancer research,” said Troy Gentry. “A warm weather event will be great especially at the end of the year when it’s cold in Nashville.”

“We will have some special guests joining us for the private performances, celebrity golf classic and the celebrity bartending activities,” said Eddie Montgomery. “This will be the ultimate country music experience all for a great cause.”

Packages based on double occupancy (excluding air transportation) are $1,100 per person and include all activities, meals and beverages. The Celebrity Golf Classic is an additional charge of $250 per person. Space is limited and participants should sign up early to get room preferences.
