This year M.C. Connor Norman will be your guide to musical entertainment that has been generously donated by several bands including:
Loretta Hummel and Country Grass who will be playing classic country music in the style of Kitty Wells in addition to some original songs written by Loretta Hummel like “The Wall of Backbone Mountain,” a Garrett County favorite.
Second Wind, an Opry staple for years takes up their instruments again to thrill us with a spectacular performance in remembrance of Olen Beitzel, the founding member of the group.
The Casselman Valley Travelers are from the Casselman Valley near Grantsville, Maryland and specialize in 60’s, 70’s and 80’s country music.

The need is great and it couldn’t be done without fundraisers like this event. While the future Federal Funding of Meals on Wheels is in question, attendees can help to bridge the gap and continue this valuable and necessary service.
