Hey, Friends in and Around Yarnell!
Hope all of you are doing well and staying out of trouble! This edition of the Yarnell News by Denise Roggio is packed full. Ha-Ha….your musical reporter at work. As they say, “We Aim to Please!” I hope I don’t forget anything, but I’ll do my best with info I’ve been given.
As always, the entertainer in me won’t be able to start with anything else. So, here’s what’s happening in our musical fun world:
This Friday, April 29th – Yours truly will play at the Yarnell Family Diner, 5pm – 8pm with the usual fun we create together!
This Saturday, April 30th – I’ll be playing at the VFW Post 541 in Prescott. This is their annual fundraiser for the VA Hospital Alzheimer’s Treatment Center – Golf tournament and BBQ. My music begins at 4pm. You can stop by because it’s open to the public! By-the-way, the VFW has become a non-smoking facility indoors, with a separate room for those of us who choose to create rings…Read more here!
Friday, May 6th – I’ll see you at the Yarnell Family Diner again from 5pm – 8pm
May and June are already crazy busy on the Yarnell Schedule. Mark these dates:
Yarnell Daze 2016! May 14th all day. Come visit me at the Vendor’s Field Stage. Our lineup is AWESOME, and I’ll be the filler performer, so the music never stops! We start at 9am, and the Yarnell Daze Parade begins at 10am. Walt Eckes and Delbert Long will perform at the Diner, and the Beer Garden will be ROCKIN….Be there or be, well you know…
The Special Election, at the Presbyterian Church, 6 am – 7 pm on May 17th. AZ Propositions 123 and 124 are being voted on.
The usual FRIDAY NIGHTS AT THE DINER, Featuring Myself on 1st and 3rd Friday, Walt Eckes & Friends on 2nd Friday, and Manzanita Road on 4th Friday. You cannot go wrong.
