DESTIN, FL--(Marketwire - Mar 1, 2012) - Music fans may remember Darius Rucker as the lead singer of Hootie and the Blowfish, and on Sunday, May 13, 2012, Rucker will find himself as front man once again, this time as the headliner for a charity concert held at Grand Boulevard in Destin, Florida.
Proceeds from the concert, the inaugural event for the ANNIKA Foundation, will go toward the implementation of SPARK, the nation's leading children's physical education program, into select northwest Florida elementary schools. This program is in line with the ANNIKA Foundation's own mission of educating youth on the importance of healthy living through fitness and nutrition.

Guestrooms offer complimentary wireless Internet, cable TV, and plush bedding, while a fitness center, pool, whirlpool, and sauna are just steps away.
