UGHA Meeting/Show #267 of Oct. 27th met with nice success! The Emotions and Del Vikings were very entertaining and gave excellent performances. We thank them as we also thank the Elevations for their fine acappella performance. We thank all who attended #267. Special thanks to my hard working dedicated staff, who give their unselfish help to benefit our organization and music throughout the year!

 UGHA M/S #268 will be Fri. November 24th & Sat. Nov. 25th ‑ Our 24th Annual Anniversary Celebration Weekend.

There will be no Collector's Night. We will have 2 nights of shows featuring UGHA traditional favorites with a few first time special collectors' type groups. Check out the lineup!

Friday Night, Nov. 24th: Eternals ‑ Rainbows ‑ Things To Come (aka The Deeps) with a special tribute to our beloved, departed Harry Douglas and his Deep River Boys. Also, a good possibility of the Cadillacs and definitely, a very special surprise from Cincinnatti, Otis Williams with his new Charms (the Sheps)! Saturday Afternoon ‑ 6:00 to 7:00 PM ‑ Our annual fund raising auction. (See enclosed list) Saturday Night ‑ Willie Winfield & Harptones ‑ Five Discs ‑ Barbara English and Clickettes, Chandeliers ‑ Encounters ‑and Mystique. 2 fabulous nights of fun and entertainment! We strong], suggest you call for reservations now! Don't come Saturday and expect to sit down without a reservation. It will be standing room only on Sat. Friday should be packed as well but with a better chance of a seat. Play it safe and call to reserve, just the definite number of people coming ... no maybe's. The weekend is costing us over $14,000. We would like to get as much money back as possible. A minimal loss would be successful. The admission cost is $25 per day. If you are attending both days, the cost is $40 ‑ a $ 10 savings. (You will pay on Friday and get a pass for Sat.) We will go back to our usual membership admission price in Dec. Come early, for we hope to start as early as possible, since it is the Thanksgiving Day weekend and most people are home from work, which also makes light traffic on the roads. Bring your dance shoes and join our UGHA dancers for a turkey hop!
