'Cody Johnson Championship Event' Set For October

Cody Johnson will host his third annual "Cody Johnson Championship Event" in Belton, Texas…

Activities include the CHAMPS FOR CHARITY GALA, presented by Ag Trust. The Gala will feature an auction and an acoustic performance by Johnson. Over the past two years, the event has raised more than $1.25 million for charities including A Different Day Foundation and Texas FFA.

In celebration of America’s 250th anniversary, this year’s proceeds will support organizations serving military members, first responders, law enforcement officers, and youth agricultural programs. The Gala will also be catered by the Guy Fieri Foundation, which supports organizations that honor first responders and military veterans.

"I want this roping event to not only grow into a life-changing event that pays ropers a pile of money and prizes, but also generate enough for charity to change people’s lives," says Johnson.
