Senior Idol Event 2012

Here are the participants from each center for our Senior Idol Event 2012 contest.  This is a yearly event.  Perhaps you would like to tryout for your center next year.

On a sad note, our Senor Idol from last year would be the one to hand over the trophy.  Saddly John Prather passed on this last year and wasn't able to accomplish this.  We will miss his beautiful voice.

Dynna Meier, Andrew Downing and Susan Klinker judged the show for us.  They had a job on their hands.  The talent was hard to choose from.  They enjoyed the whole program.  Thanks to them I don't have to take on this hard task.

Andrew was kind enough to sing for us.  He also told us a tidbit about his trying out for the show American Idol.

David Walker and I were the MC's.  We did some team joking.  David is always fun to work with.

Everyone that enters is a winner to me.  We have great talent in our senior population.  And now, the top winners are . . .
