Christmas Special, Saturday Night

by: Bobby McDonald

It was a large crowd of people that chose to usher in the Christmas season, on Saturday night, in Reilly Springs, as the Reilly Springs Jamboree hosted their Christmas Special. The program began at 7:00 and featured Roger Reed and the Sunshine Band, as well as special guests, who lent their own talent to the program. Christmas, country, and gospel songs were performed on stage that helped to entertain the crowd.

Roger Reed announced that they still planned to continue the once-per month, Reilly Springs Jamboree, on the third Saturday night of each month, throughout 2011. "We'll be back and hope to see each of you, as well as all of your friends," stated Reed, in making his announcement. "We strive to provide an entertaining show for family audiences, that features you favorite songs!"

Reed also announce that Hannah Kirby, who has been a constant on the show, would not be returning, as she has other musical commitments in 2011, but they featured her on a couple of numbers and wished her Godspeed in her musical endeavors. They also featured Tommy Randles, who has moved to the area from New Mexico, who hopes to join the show, in the coming year.

Fiddler and vocalist, Hannah Kirby, will not be returning to the show in 2011, and bade farewell to
the audience, on Saturday night, with some featured numbers.
