Karaoke nights held every Wednesday in CH1
It was a treat to applaud four new performers—Loc Ton, Charlie Nguyen, Bruce Lee and Vu Tran—at the Aug. 2 meeting of the Community Karaoke Club. They had fine voices and lit up the room.
Ed Jablonski sang an exuberant “More Today Than Yesterday.” William Young entertained the audience with a country tune while members munched on pizza. Barbie May also likes country tunes. With some passion, Essie Hicks did “Just Another Woman in Love.” Always smiling Gerry Tagaloa sang a nice “Only the Lonely.” Anna Le chose a rousing “World We Knew.” Elizabeth Butterfield sang a charming “Muskrat Love.” Julie Nulad sang a nice “My Happiness,” as did Sherie Vanek with “And I Love You So.” The “late crowd” are the last to leave, still singing as members shut down for the night; they include Vinny Correnti, Susan Kelleghan, Carmen Edwards and several others. The audience often enjoys their group songs and duets.
Wednesday karaoke nights are full of surprises with music that rocks the room or gets people tapping their feet or dancing. Everyone is welcome in Clubhouse 1 from 5:30-9:30 p.m. Folks who want to try out a new song or polish an old one can take advantage of karaoke practice sessions on Mondays in Clubhouse 6 from 1-3 p.m.
