Bands Rock for Tots at Casino

Posted: Updated:

Erie bands rocked out for kids in need on Sunday, at the second annual "Rock 4 Tots."

For 10 dollars, or a toy donation, you could hear seven bands perform upbeat favorites for the whole family.

All money and toys will be given to Saint Martin's Center, to put presents under the tree for local kids in need.

Geek Army got things off to a good start, and band members from French Kiss, who organized the event, were pleased with the turnout.

"We got lots of toys, lots of goodies, it's going well," said band member Trevor Vogt.

"I had a great childhood and I want everyone to feel that you know... wake up and have presents, it's a great feeling," said fellow French Kiss band mate Jeff Snider.

The show ran from 1:00 to 7:00 p.m. at Presque Isle Downs and Casino.
