Proceeds from Zac Brown Band’s Ram truck will be donated to Camp
Southern Ground, which is the passion project of Grammy-Award winning musician
Zac Brown, set to open in 2014. Zac donated this 500-acre piece of property,
set in the farmlands of Georgia,
to open the camp that will be a state-of-the-art facility whose programs will
serve children ages 7-17 with both typical and special needs. The camp
will have activities that will challenge, educate, and inspire children with
diverse abilities and from all socioeconomic backgrounds, races, and religions.
Among the many traditional camp activities that will foster youth development
and create teachable moments for campers, plans are in place to align certain
elements of the facility with the latest innovative therapies and technology
for those children affected by neurobehavioral disorders. For more

kids and it’s a great to know that with support from our friends and
fans, this camp is going to make a huge difference in the lives of each and
every camper,” said Zac Brown.

Two-time Grammy-Award winners and multi platinum artists Zac Brown Band have
become one of music’s most heralded acts. With a historic nine consecutive #1
hit singles, awe-inspiring musicianship and dynamic live shows, the Georgia
six-piece is definitely built to last. Zac Brown Band’s double-platinum major
label debut ‘The Foundation’ (Atlantic Records/Home Grown/Big Picture) was
named one of Billboard’s Top 20 albums of 2009, and the platinum follow-up ‘You
Get What You Give’ (Atlantic/Southern Ground Artists) debuted at #1 on the
Billboard 200 chart in 2010. Since 2009, the band has garnered more than 50
combined Grammy, ACM, AMA, CMA, and CMT award nominations with wins including
their 2010 Grammy win for “Best New Artist,” 2010 CMA win for
“New Artist of the Year,” and 2011 ACM Top Vocal Event of the Year
for “As She’s Walking Away” with Alan Jackson. No question, the past
three years have been dizzying for the hardworking act. The band’s first major
label release, ‘The Foundation’ was the first major label debut album in 18
years to yield five #1’s including “Chicken Fried” and
“Free.” Released on November 18, 2008 on Atlantic Records, ‘The
Foundation’ debuted at #17 on the Billboard Top 200 Chart and #3 on the Top
Country Albums Chart.
