A Word From Ron

A Quote from Peggy Shaner
One of my most treasured pre-Covid memories was the wild times at Swinging Sundays!
For those of you who missed the opportunity…Hang onto your hats! I am overjoyed to hear the beloved entertainment extravaganza is making a triumphant return!
What delighted me most was the quality of entertainment from top-notch, A-list performers who created a vibrant and high-energy atmosphere that had me on my feet, dancing and
cheering for more! I quickly realized that Swinging Sundays was not just a show; it was an
experience designed to leave everyone exhilarated and impatiently waiting for the next Sunday to arrive! ……. And the unpredictability of not knowing which talented entertainers would show up each Sunday added an exciting element to that experience. The fact that these performers were typically associated with Vegas Strip Shows thrilled me with their magic, energy and
unparalleled talent that defined Swinging Sundays.
My advice to everyone who loves to swing, dance and revel in great music and showmanship…. Indulge yourself in Swinging Sundays every chance you can get! It’s pure entertainment bliss!
