Last year, our mid week jam session in a small village by the sprawling Lake of the Ozarks was moved from a local church basement to the nearby community center activity room. In recent months, the township`s center for disabled and special needs citizens has been frequently bringing their clients to this venue to enjoy our music and song. Most of this audience is wheelchair bound, and the caregivers position these guests so our singing can be clearly heard by young and old alike.
As a teenager years ago, one of our harmony singers (kneeling front row) was a clogger at the regional Silver Dollar City theme park which still operates today. At our afternoon jam sessions, she dances before the wheelchair audience entertaining our visitors and garnering their smiles, applause, and laughter.
It is a special privilege for us to perform for these appreciative guests.
From the BRC: Enjoy the First Day of Spring, March 20th.
