This year we had a great surprise. The people from Serving Time brought refreshments for our guests at the Senior Idol Event. How fun was that? We can always take surprises like that. Nice job guys, nice job.
For judges this year previous winners of Senior Idol were asked to do the judging.

and a special thanks to Janet Wilson for collecting all of the gifts from our sponsors.
Another special thanks to David Murdock and his band people. They played the postlude and sing a long music for our event. They are very talented people and we surely enjoyed their music.
This year was great along with the previous.
One of the things brought up from the previous winners was that other doors opened because of winning in the Senior Idol. They are more confident to share their singing in other places and look forward to singing every chance they get. Congratulations everyone. To all of the participants throughout the years I personally thank you for sharing and making this program a success. You made my heart swell and my tears fall with joy. I loved watching and hearing each of you. You hold a place in my happy heart. Thank you.
