Concert marks 40 years of The Rich Center
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (WKBN) — Lita Ford, best known for her chart-topping hits and fierce guitar riffs, headlined this year's Rock The Rich Center concert. You might recognize Ford from her days with The Runaways, before she kicked off a solo career. Her stop at the Youngstown Foundation Amphitheatre marks 40 years of the Rich Center. Her performance is drawing national attention to a local mission and driving critical funding to help the center's programs, taking it to new heights. 'It is a great honor and a great pleasure for me to be here today to perform for everybody. Some of the younger girls who were backstage were asking for autographs and taking pictures, and I'm just so happy to support the foundation and the charity,' Ford said. 'Let's rock and roll.' Our very own Lindsey Watson was the event ambassador. The Vindys also hit the stage to support the center's biggest fundraiser of the year. Tino DiCenso contributed to this report.
