Foundation event raises more than $5,000

Our Oasis event was an overwhelming success. 

There was 456 people who attended between 4 p.m., until closing. 

The Oasis, in Eddyville, Ky., had a ''Golden Hour", grossing more in that one-hour period than it had ever before in the restaurant's history.

The Jake Hodge Foundation received $5,704.42 from the event. 

The foundation now has assets in the amount of $87,760. It is getting very close to the $100,000 goal.

The foundation provides scholarships each year to area high schools and a member of the Kentucky High School Rodeo Association.
