Community Karaoke

Fulfilling a bucket list, Randi Allen has begun to sing at the Wednesday karaoke parties. With her gentle voice, the audience enjoyed the Everly Brothers hit “Let It Be Me.” Vickie Mendoza sang a husky “Sumertime”, which is an Ella Fitzgerald favorite.

Changing the mood was Erika Greenwood with “Skip A Rope,” Shannon Harrison doing “Let Your Love Flow” and Nina Todorov singing “Those Were the Days.” A powerful Lady Gaga hit “Always Remember” got appreciation for Nina DeRosa. A smooth “Day After Day” was sung by Tony Tupas. David Noble sang a mellow Elvis tune. Ray Greirman, always animated, sang “Tiny Bubbles.” The audience enjoyed the voices of 25 karaoke enthusiasts.

The club’s “cookie lady,” Allana Eaby, provided a plateful of fresh baked goodies. Hot coffee and tea are ready for people as they’re are moved with the variety of music.

Each Monday in Clubhouse 6, a small group practice a new song or perfect a favorite. The club meets from 1-3 p.m. Wednesday nights are karaoke partiesinClubhouse1beginning at 5:30. Everyone is welcome to be a singer. Singers love their audience, who appreciate their efforts.
