Here we are starting a new year at The Woodbine Opry.  We have a good program scheduled for Saturday night as we have Joe Muench and T.K.Hilton joining us.  It is always a pleasure having these two men with us here at Woodbine.

The quote for the week:  “We are continually faced by great opportunities brilliantly disguised as insoluble problems.”  Lee Iacocca

We had a good year here at The Woodbine Opry.  For the most part, the crowds have been full-house or nearly full-house every Saturday night.  Although the economy is suffering, we broke our record of giving away money on the 1/2 and 1/2 as we handed out $11,135.00.  Appearing on stage this past year were 32 performers, some were first-time guests but many were familiar faces to the Opry.  I am looking forward to another great year performing with the band and meeting new friends and greeting old ones.

This week’s trivia question:  This radio announcer beamed his Road Show to truckers all across America from the studios of WWL in New Orleans.  He passed away on November 24, 2011,  Who was he?

I hope to see you all at The Woodbine Opry this Saturday night.
