Islanders get ready to "rock the rock" in support of residents of sister-city Ocean Springs, MS.,
a small town devastated by Hurricane Katrina.
Mayor Bob Johnson of Islamorada, weatherman Don Noe from WPLG’s Channel 10 and Clear Channel Radio’s K.C. Stuart will share center stage on October 23, 2005 at 1:00 p.m. kicking off "FLORIDA KEYS FOR KATRINA RELIEF DAY" at Islamorada Founder’s Park with the presentation of "Keys To The Village" to Mayor Connie Moran and visiting representatives from Ocean Springs, MS.
The united fundraiser, based on a concept presented by well-known Keys fishing guide Jimmy Lozar and with just six weeks of lead time, is now steam-rolling toward the Sunday afternoon debut. Residents, area businesses and friends from all over the country are rallying to the cause and the extraordinary fundraising skills of the Florida Keys when it comes to helping those in need.
Cay Clubs International, Caribee Boat Sales and Marina, Holiday Isle Resort, William Fountain Properties, Inc., Islamorada Fishing Club, Rotary Club of Key Largo and TIB Bank along with an entire community of volunteers have provided seed money, infrastructure and support to make this happen.
And happen it will in typical island style. Music, featuring both local and national bands and lots of it, will start the day and take us right to the closing hours. According to Sid Sussman of Professional Event Services, Inc. well known South Florida and Keys bands Big Richard and his Extended Orchestra, Dave Feder, The Regs, The Jesse Kelsee Project and the Marlin Too Revue will perform.
Later in the day, legendary guitarist Bo Diddley lets it rip along with "The Big Man" Clarence Clemmons on the saxophone, Iron Butterfly’s Mike Pinera, The Soul Providers and Frankie Ford.

Activities include kid’s games, a bounce house, sand art, coconut painting, clowns, and letter writing contests. The kids will have their own stage for performances by local school bands, a fashion show and more.
At the Dog Park, Jill Hayes Photography will host a pet party and dog sporting event. There will be animal agility demonstrations and Lourdes Edlin’s World Class Frisbee Dogs of Miami will perform.
