I hope all who attended the 31st anniversary of the Annual Variety Show enjoyed it as much as I did. Once again, we had great acts. Thank you to all of the entertainers. Also, thank you to Harvey Kubly for being the emcee since we started and to Carolyn Hilliard for playing piano, Tammy and Danny Wirth for allowing us to use the great venue of T&D’s, and Danny Klitzke for being our sound man for almost 25 years. Thank you also to the many who attended, we need you to make this a successful and fun filled evening.
