Nashville's Next Star

We started school last Tuesday and are getting back in the swing of things.  It is time to catch up on some posts.  One of the cool parts about the NAAF conference in July is getting to meet new people.  They have different speakers and workshops for the adults while we are in the tween camp. One I wish I could have heard was Becky Hibbs.  My dad said her speech was awesome and the kids should have been in there for it.  Becky has had alopecia areata since she was 2.  She has attended the conference for many years in the camp and this year she got to speak and sing.

Becky lives in Nashville and is a great singer.  She has sang the National Anthem at the Houston Astros as well as the Nashville Sounds.  She was just featured last week in the "Artists to Watch: Country Night"  One of the songs she sang at the conference was "Bare" which talks about a battle with alopecia areata.   

After talking to her at the conferenc and telling her what we are doing, she sent a signed cd for us.  It is really awesome having people in the public eye raising awareness for alopecia areata.  I really hope she hits it big because she is a great singer...but a better person!  Thanks Becky!
