Notes

The Ring Show,  Magic & Music , was held April 9 and 10 at the Walhalla HS.  Danny Willaims, Gary and Wendy Collins, Lanny Delaney, Mollie Rudolph, Shaun Moss, Gene Burton, Chris Culbertson, Jonathan Kirk and Courtney Currie, all performed on stage.  That would not have happened without Alan Staton, Michael Ross, Ben Hardaway, Stumpy, Elina Kirk and Larry Colombo making lights, curtains, costume changes and sound systems work.  Patrons also got a good dose of close up magic before and after the show as well as during intermission. After the show I was pleased to hear favorable comments about the show from people who were not relatives !!  I want to thank everyone who was involved with the show.  It was great to see folks work hard to pull it together.  Travel miles to get there, and do it again the next night.

There has been a small delay in Lotto 63..... but should be up to speed this month.

 

Jonathan Kirk was the lucky winner of Lotto 63 for March.  He got it on the very first draw.  I'm sure it is the

beginning of a long run of good luck for Kirk.  Lotto 63 is a door prize for Ring members.
