Darryl Worley's Tennessee River Run Raises $175,000 for Hometown

Darryl Worley's annual charity event, the Tennessee River Run, has raised $175,000 for his hometown of Savannah, Tenn. The proceeds will help build a cancer treatment center at the Hardin County Medical Center. The three-day event, which concluded Sept. 13, featured live music, a children's fishing tournament, fish fry, 5K run and golf tournament. "It's truly astounding to me that, even in this economy, people are still willing to dig deep for their friends and neighbors, both with their money and time," said Worley. "Their generosity overwhelms me."
