Denise Thimes to Perform Benefit Concert for Ncada on Tuesday, June 23

Singer Denise Thimes (pictured) will headline a benefit concert for the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse-St. Louis Area at 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, June 23 at the Sheldon Concert Hall.

Proceeds from the concert will go to NCADA's substance abuse prevention programs for youth. Thimes also performed for NCADA's 2008 benefit, and, according to development director Janet Popelka, recently became a board member for the not-for-profit organization as well.

Tickets will be priced at $25 for the concert only, or $50 for patron tickets, which include preferred seating and a gourmet dessert reception with Thimes. ($25 of the price of each patron ticket also qualifies as a tax-deductible contribution.) Student tickets will be available at the door for $5 with proof of student status. Tickets will go on sale after March 1, and can be purchased online via NCADA's Web site or by calling them at 314-962-3456.
