<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Thanks so much to everyone who showed up for the benefit concert Sunday night -- it was a great success! AND, there are so many people to thank...</span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">First, thanks to Norwalk's Black Bear Saloon for the space and donating among other things, the hot food and banner. Thanks to their awesome staff, particularly the bar backs who ran around setting things up so we could start on time - and kept things moving throughout the night. </span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">BIG THANKS to Scott White (<a href="http://whitehouseproductions.net/">http://whitehouseproductions.net/</a>) and his crew Chris Ramos and David Petty for providing the sound. To say they were totally professional, down to earth and worked great with all the musicians, is an understatement. It couldn't have sounded better or ran smoother. David might remember me as I was taking photos of the musicians from all angles. I even took a picture of the sound board!! But go figure, unfortunately I didn't take a picture of Chris or David. Sorry about that guys...but thank you!!</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span></strong><br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ04hxuNhsPJ5oLQhV_Xw-30m7_ad9jMRynwyEeBzDqVNqMzChCeSXNNm6uPxdFSZK1T0UXSCrTTCLnXhiLtAk7cODGhtqr0BGszZ7BbkZAKXVzXgrqkgVBgitjLgXOQHrQ5ztbe5dWTGg/s1600/Digital+Mixer.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ04hxuNhsPJ5oLQhV_Xw-30m7_ad9jMRynwyEeBzDqVNqMzChCeSXNNm6uPxdFSZK1T0UXSCrTTCLnXhiLtAk7cODGhtqr0BGszZ7BbkZAKXVzXgrqkgVBgitjLgXOQHrQ5ztbe5dWTGg/s320/Digital+Mixer.jpg" width="213" /></a></td></tr>

<strong>I DO.</strong></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Next, special thanks to our musical guests for donating their time and putting on an awesome show: Slo-Peake (look for a link in the near future), The Other Band (<a href="http://www.reverbnation.com/theotherbandct">http://www.reverbnation.com/theotherbandct</a>), The Grate Escape (up and coming young band) and Highway 49 (their latest reunion). You guys and gals really showed up and <u>everyone</u> I spoke to said you did an amazing job.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Special thanks also goes out to the following people: our gal pals Sheila and Gail for setting up the raffle displays and hanging out till the raffle portion was said and done. These girls were tired, and yet they stuck by their post hard at work without a whimper or complaint. XOXO, we really appreciate your time! And let's not forget Kyle, who pitched in at the end when it came time to announcing the raffle winners. AND thanks to Ted Lin who deserves a special award, for sitting ALL NIGHT by the entrance greeting guests. I know he had a few partners helping out like, Patty, Gary and Dave, but Ted hung by the door so long, I had to shoo him away and close up shop.</span></strong><br />
<strong><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span></strong><strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Surprise of the night was a visit from Andrew Hurley of Connecticut News12, who videotaped parts of the event. The segment aired that very same night! The clip contains an interview of Ron and you can see/hear Slo-Peake perform. The segment was also picked up by New Haven's WTNH (according to Ron's mom Louise) and aired the next day.</span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Ron and I can't even begin to tell you how grateful we are for everyone's time, energy, and especially support (and I'm not talking about the monetary support). We couldn't have done it without you, and to prove it, one final thank you. To Chef George...</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia;">Thank You Chef George of Gardone's Deli in Norwalk. Despite losing a member of his family, Chef George generously and graciously donated a gift certificate for the raffle. It's that kind of spirit that makes things happen in our local communities. Let's keep these small businesses prospering. Visit his deli and Facebook page for details: (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/gardonesdeli">https://www.facebook.com/gardonesdeli</a>). </span></strong><br />
