Technically, we are going to North Greenbush this Friday for the Small Town Tour, brought to you by Fidelis Care. So I guess I'm going to write a song about North and East Greenbush, but I could use some help here!
I feel like a kid myself here. I'm getting more and more excited about how this is turning out!
It's a song that schools in four different Capital Region counties are helping to create. The message? DON'T BE A BULLY. The school helping out this week? Jefferson Elementary in Schenectady County.
I have to thank a Facebook friend and Canajoharie resident, Jason, for the idea. He wanted me to write a song about his town to the tune of Alan Jackson's Chatahoochie. Genius!
This is going to be big time fun, and you're invited if you'd like to go. This coming Monday nite, I'm going to do an old fashioned sing-a-long and mini game show to a group of folks who deserve to have fun - Seniors (of which I am technically a card carrying member)
The Reading Writing and Rhyming Tour this week made a special "whistle stop". This was the first of the summer camp appearances, and certainly not the last. Many of these summer camps that I go to take place in regular classrooms. Nothing wrong with that, but to actually be outside singing in the Grafton State Park with the Hope 7 kids? Nothing like it!
Know anyone who owns a trailer? Perhaps it's you? Well, in the words of the great Montgomery Gentry--"That's Something To Be Proud Of" !Because in some circles, it's now becoming a fashionable art piece. There was a trailer recently parked in Manhattan cleverly converted into ....wait for it....an art exhibit!
