What a great show!

 The "Musicians for Mt. Tabor Benefit" held at the Regent on Monday night raised $4000 towards renovations at Mt. Tabor Community Playhouse!  The evening rolled along smoothly, with one fabulous act followed by another.  Special thanks to all the performers who gave their time and talent to help.  We appreciate you all! 

Brian Colgate was the highest bidder and so went home with a framed 1980's "Stringband" poster, professionally framed by SideStreet Gallery and featuring Zeke Mazurek, fiddler and frequent performer at Mt. Tabor.  Zeke's wife, Danyne Kerr, donated it from Zeke's collection of memorabillia.  It was a wonderful way of including Zeke in the evening, as we know he would have been there.
And thanks Brian for your support!  We appreciate it!
