Rodney
Atkins is displaying his patriotic spirit, accepting the role of
Ambassador of the Thank You Movement, the world’s largest ongoing
military appreciation campaign. Rodney launched the goodwill project
Monday morning with an official announcement on the “Today Show,”
followed by a live performance for veterans and military organizations
in New York City’s Times Square. In partnership with Applebee’s, the
movement’s mission is to create a conscious outreach of gratitude toward
the nation’s military through messages posted on www.ThankYouMovement.com,
YouTube, Twitter (#thankyoumovement) and Applebee’s official Facebook
fan page. The project’s official website will host a live, rolling
counter of messages, allowing active-duty troops and veterans to go
online at any time to read the goodwill notes. Adkins will embark on a
USO tour of military installations abroad in 2012. Rodney has also
booked select dates in promotion of his latest album, “Take a Back
Road,” which features the No. 1 title track.
