SAVANNAH JACK, THE BAND HEADLINES VALENTINE’S DINNER By MARK H. HURD

It was a fun-filled, wild and romantic evening in the main dining room on Valentine’s night. Why you ask? Savannah Jack, the Band, was in the house! The evening started with cocktails and scrumptious hors d’oeuvres followed by a Frenchman’s Creek buffet spread which included such favorites as Grilled Lamb Chops and Beef Tenderloin along with Crab Cakes and Fried Oysters. The dessert was a trio of mouthwatering chocolate created just for the special day. As the lights dimmed, the Entertainment Committee Co-Chairs Judith Konigsberg and Ethel Schultz introduced the evening’s talent—Savannah Jack, the Band, back at Frenchman’s Creek by popular demand. What a surprise. Having opened for Kenny Rogers in excess of sixty-six times as well as other well know musicians such as Vince Gill, the Doobie Brothers, and Lady Antebellum, Savannah Jack hit the floor running from their very first song—a Neil Diamond classic. They mesmerized the audience with their three part vocal harmonies, infusing their musical versatility and individual style into a very unique sound. From the first note to their last, it’s obvious that the band loves making music all the while encouraging their audience to join in the festivities. Dancing and sing-a-longs were a huge part of their performance. On this night, Savan- nah Jack, the Band was a highly entertaining and energetic group of songwriters and musicians commanding a standing ovation! When they return to Frenchman’s Creek again be sure to spend the evening with them. You will not be disappointed!

OUR STAFF IS THE BEST

How is this for service above and beyond. One day during the week of April 9th, Iris Leaf, had wine spilled on her. Pictured is ERGE who not only supplied Wine Out but ran to also get a Hair Dryer and dried her clothing. Of course the four other women joining her could not stop laughing. And to add insult to injury, there was another glass of wine spilled at the end of the evening – No one dared to ask if her clothing was hit again!
