Happy Mother’s Day!

What a good time was had at the Woodbine Opry!  We had another really good crowd and I believe everyone enjoyed the evening.  It  is so good being back in the auditorium and much more comfortable than before.  The sound system had pretty much had all of the bugs worked out of it, there’s still a little left for the monitors for the band to hear good, but that will get fixed.

Our first-time visitors came from Folkston, Shell Point, and White Oak, Ga., Fort White and Jacksonville, Fl.,  St. Clairsville, Oh., and Applegate, Mi.  The half-n-half money that we gave away was for $196.00.   That made someone happy, I’m sure.  We certainly appreciate all of those that participate in the cake and money drawings as that’s how we make money to pay the bills.  What’s that old line, “there ain’t nothin’ free”, and that applies to us at the opry.  It costs to put on a program and we feel good that ya’ll participate and help us pay the bills.  That means we can do it again next Saturday night.

It was sure good seeing Mike “Flash” Prefontaine with us again.  Mike, I know that everyone was real happy seeing you, including myself.

LOST– A cell phone was believed to have been lost on Friday night there at the opry.  If anyone found this please contact us and we will notify the owner.

The band and everyone wants to thank Debbie Zitelli for stepping up and drumming some for us tonight.  I was informed that she dressed up the appearance of the band somewhat.  Yea, she did!  And a good drummer too.  Thanks, Debbie, you’re welcome back anytime with us.
