Wow!! What a weekend! I am just now getting back to earth. I would like to thank all those who took part in the show and those who came to watch and support us as well. The players were awesome....so many special moments. We had players from California, Arizona, Texas, Colorado, Tennessee, Washington, British Columbia, Georgia, Arkansas, New Mexico, Vermont, Pennsylvania and Missouri.
The Audio/Video guys deserve special recognition. We got so many great compliments on the sound and the giant video screen. These guys worked so hard all 3 days and nights....I can't thank them enough. John Hensch, John Hauer, John LeMay, Cameron Cave and Dave Beaty are the heroes of the AV part of the show. Thanks guys...my hat's off to you! We could not have done it without you!!
Thanks to the guys who were moving gear on and off the stage...like Jim Boyle, Joe Naylor, Troy Porter. Also thanks to Jim for helping with the MC duties.
The girls at the desk and selling tickets...Peggy Porter, Meriul Easton, Vangie Fich, LaRue Boyle, and Pat Clyde. Thanks to Gloria and King for watching the door. Thanks to Meriul and Peggy for making the special steel guitar quilt that was won by Jeremy Wiley of St. David, AZ. The Peavey Nashville 112 was won by none other than Tommy Dodd who donated it back to auction. The auction was won by our own Herb Steiner! Thanks to all who generously supported our cause by buying tickets to the many give aways. It takes a lot of money to put on a show like this and we have worked hard to make it happen.
God Bless each of you!! We love you. Long live steel guitar and the SWSGA!
