Great music meets a great cause when the fifth annual Rockin’ for CP benefit concert returns this October. The event brings local musicians and the community together to raise awareness and support for CPATH Texas<\/a> and families impacted by cerebral palsy.<\/p>\n

We Are Austin host Sierra Waggoner caught up with Dale Woodridge and Noble Craig to learn how the concert got started, what’s planned for its fifth year, and how CPATH Texas<\/a> is making a difference.<\/p>\n

Rockin’ for CP turns up the volume for cerebral palsy support in Central Texas!<\/p>\n

Five years of rocking for a cause<\/p>\n

Woodridge started Rockin’ for CP after becoming involved in Austin’s music community and looking for a way to give back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had become pretty ingrained in the Austin music scene, had a lot of friends that were in bands, and I thought it’d be neat to do something for cerebral palsy awareness,\u201d Woodridge said.<\/p>\n

This year’s lineup leans heavily into tribute and cover bands, with music celebrating artists including Johnny Cash, Led Zeppelin and No Doubt.<\/p>\n

Supporting CPATH Texas families<\/p>\n

The concert benefits CPATH Texas<\/a>, a local nonprofit created by mothers who repeatedly crossed paths while navigating medical care and therapy for their children.<\/p>\n

Among its largest programs is a durable medical equipment closet that provides gently used equipment and supplies to families at no cost.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’ve distributed more than $5 million worth of equipment at the equipment closet, and we’ve had over 200 campers at our camp,\u201d Craig said.<\/p>\n

CPATH Texas also offers an accessible family camp, covering the cost for the entire family to spend a weekend together participating in activities designed for campers of varying abilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of our programs are free,\u201d Craig said.<\/p>\n

Get ready to rock<\/p>\n

The fifth annual Rockin’ for CP happens Sunday, Oct. 11 at Hanovers in Pflugerville. Doors open at 1 p.m., with the first band taking the stage at 2 p.m.<\/p>\n
