You may need to loop it up until you get response as "y" like the following.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
# Put Values in an myarrayname and read them back
file="FILE.EXT"     # input filename

yes="n"
while read line ;do
      wardevent=${line:3:2}                        # find the wardells Event code 
      eventnam=$(echo $line | cut -d '"' -f4)        # Extract the event

#read -p "Enter the code for the Center event $eventnam  - " mmevent </dev/tty

#read -p "Is this Event Code correct? y/n " yes </dev/tty
#    if [ "$yes" == "y" ]
#        then myarrayname["$wardevent"]="$mmevent"    # Write new line to Array and Continue to next entry
#        else exit                                    #Ask again to redo line
#    fi 
     until [ "$yes" == "y" ]
     do
       read -p "Enter the code for the Center event $eventnam  - " mmevent </dev/tty
       read -p "Is this Event Code correct? y/n " yes </dev/tty

     done
    myarrayname["$wardevent"]="$mmevent"
    yes="n" 
done <"$file"

Added lines in blue and commented unwanted lines.

DESCRIPTION

       grub-mkrescue can be used to generate a rescue image with the GRUB bootloader.

OPTIONS

       --output=FILE
	      Write the generated file to FILE.  The default is to write to standard output.

       --modules=MODULES
	      Pre-load modules specified by MODULES.

       --install-modules=MODULES
	      Install only MODULES and their dependencies.  The default is to install all available modules.

       --themes=THEMES
	      Install THEMES.  The default is to install the starfield theme, if available.

       --fonts=FONTS
	      Install FONTS.  The default is to install the unicode font.

       --locales=LOCALES
	      Install only locales listed in LOCALES.  The default is to install all available locales.

       --compress[=no,xz,gz,lzo]
	      Compress GRUB files using the specified compression algorithm.

       --directory=DIR
	      Use images and modules in DIR.

       --grub-mkimage=FILE
	      Use FILE as grub-mkimage(1).  The default is /usr/bin/grub-mkimage.

       --rom-directory=DIR
	      Save ROM images in DIR.

       --xorriso=FILE
	      Use FILE as xorriso.

       --grub-render-label=FILE

       --label-font=FILE

       --product-version=STRING
	      Use STRING as the product version in generated labels.

       --sparc-boot

       --arcs-boot

	      the i386-pc target platform.

       --     All options after a -- will be passed directly to xorriso's command line when generating the image.
