BK LOUNGE

What a great pleasure to see Jean Hawkins and her family come in the Lounge for tonight's show. It was the first time we had seen her since Roger's passing.
She pleased everyone when she announced that they planned to have the MO-KAN OPRY site up and running again in March. I think everyone has really missed it for the past several weeks.

We had a good crowd in spite of the extreme cold. There was a pretty heavy snow falling before the show ended but few people left early. I guess they have missed so many shows lately due to the weather that they were not going to give up on this one.

The band sang "Happy Birthday" to several and also helped Larry Dean celebrate his upcoming birthday on Saturday. In addition, Marvin reported that he and "Sug" had celebrated their 52nd wedding anniversary on Tuesday.

Jerome Oberle was there with his all-button accordion and entertained us with several musical numbers.

We are planning an all Rock & Roll show at the Grinter Barn Jamboree show April 21. Watch for more details and start planning to put on your costume and come out and join us.

The regular Grinter Barn Jamboree will be this coming Thursday, February 17. The Ladies of Grinter will begin serving Cheezy Beef & Noodles at 6:00PM and the music starts at 6:30. Only $8.00 for the dinner and show with proceeds going to the "Friends of Grinter". We hope to see everyone there.

Everyone stay safe and warm til we see you again next Tuesday at the BK Lounge!
