“I am thrilled to have the opportunity to be involved with Camp Soaring Eagle. Throughout my career I have been fortunate to be involved with many great children’s organizations such as Childhelp USA and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. I have always felt a strong responsibility to do anything I can to help children in need and their families. To be able to join my lifelong friend Max James and help Camp Soaring Eagle provide these amazing experiences for seriously ill children is something I am honored to be a part of. I am looking forward to performing and seeing everyone at our show in October.” – T.G. Sheppard
