A Night to Remember
By: Kelly Thorsby
We were beyond thrilled with the chamber’s first karaoke contest, CHAMBER-OKE held
on Thursday, September 24 at the Arts of the Albemarle. Over 30 talented performers of our
community chose to sing for our Chamber Capital Campaign Fund, which was designed to
expand our chamber facilities to offer even more resources to our members and the public.
Jerry Newell/ DJ Taz ran our karaoke and Celebrity Judges were , Ray Turner of Dixie 105.7fm
, Andy Montero from Montero’s Restaurant and Carol Flowers of Flowers Printing. Judges
chose Jason “Good Time” Reed for Best Soloist and Forest Park Church Worship Group
(Amber Jones, Taylor Bray & Chanelle Winslow) as Best Group Act. The People’s Choice
Award was given to The Pepsi Boys (Danny Hare & Floyd Wilkins) for singing “Buy Me a
Boat” for the most audience votes collected.
Gary Hobbs of Long & Foster won the 50/50 raffle and graciously donated the money back
to the chamber fund. Crowd favorites included True Images Salon Pink Ladies’ reenactment
of Beauty School Dropout and Dr. Craig Schranz & the Sentara Sensations doing Stayin’
Alive by The Bee Gees. We thank everyone who sponsored (CenturyLink, Arts of the Albemarle,
City Beverage, Pepsi & Albemarle Distributing), performed, voted, or attended this
enjoyable event.
And golfers, don’t put those golf clubs away just yet! The 7th Annual Chamber Fall Golf Classic
