Hello! And thanks to all of you who have inquired
about this year’s fundraiser, These are our plans for Shake, Rattle & Roll-2007. . The date this year is Sunday, September 30th, from 11am to 6 or 7pm. We have decided to forgo the run this year. Our walk will begin at 11am, leaders of the walk will be some of our guest politicians & doctors. At the turn-around point, we will have a butterfly release (an idea that I shamelessly stole from Kaylee-but is planning to come to come to make sure that we do it right!). At around noon (all times are subject to change), Everything will open: Ice Cream Social Kiddie Karnival Entertainment on the Kids Stage Food vendors Auction Craft vendors Gina Morss will begin the program on the adult stage Beer truck will serve beer This year we are hoping to have something for everyone. The kids entertainment will include (and these are also subject to change); clowns, face painting, a magician, a gypsy fortune teller, wildlife expert w/ animals, a storyteller, and the Hair Co. kids. On the adult stage-we will have 3 really terrific bands: ‘Nickologic’, ‘The Dave Chastain Band’ you can hear their southern styled-boogie & blues at: http://www.thedavechastainband.com/ & from LA,-Pete Yorn-a wonderfully talented and hard rockin’ young singer /songwriter who has a great reputation from touring with the Dixie Chicks. Hear him & read about him at: http://www.peteyorn.com/ In addition to all this wonderful talent, we will have the very best shopping in town with our always popular auction and the best crafters from all over central IL. Don’t forget about the food, ice cream & cake and ice cold Budweiser beer products. Everyone is invited to attend this event-PWP’s are invited to come into town on Friday, Sept. 28th and we will all go somewhere to have dinner (yet to be decided) and maybe hear a band. Then on Saturday, Sept. 29th, we will have a “Parkie Picnic” with a few speakers but this will be a very informal affair-it will allow us to relax and get to know one another I will once again, have rooms saved at the Super 8 which is right up the road from my house or at the Amercinn- a bit more expensive.. i would also like to ask any of you who have a special talent to consider donating something for us to auction off. Last year we were blessed to have things from Aussie bron, Spilkers, Sherry, HelenJane & i can’t remember who else. but please contact me if you would like to contribute. Thanks for putting uur event on your calendar. Hope to see you in September!!

Jes, one of these fine years I AM going to get to Shake, Rattle and Roll.
I have heard over and over again about the fun everyone has! Best of luck for the same fine event for 2007, as has been for all the prior years. I also heard that SR&R is like a big group 85.gif in the PD community.
