Congratulations to Rogers and Patricia Johnson Harris on their recent marriage.
Hello my dear friends, how are you? Well, I don’t know if you have noticed or not, but I believe summer is gone. I can tell by the green leaves on the trees are now turning brown and yellow, and my flower garden looks like weeds. “Terrible Situation!” But that is okay, because we are keeping the party going.
The party will start, 6-9 p.m., Oct. 8 at the Arch Social Club on Pennsylvania and North Avenues and you all are invited to come to the Rosa Pryor Music Scholarship Fund Press Reception Party as my guest. There will be live entertainment featuring Joe Hosea Band, Sharon Alford, vocalist and Ms Maybelle as mistress of ceremony; hors d’oeuvres and cash bar. The Arch Social Club is sponsoring this event. This is a kick off for the Oct. 26 Rosa Pryor Music Scholarship Fund Award Banquet Gala red carpet event to be held at the Forum Caterers. This is all for the gifted children who won the scholarships and the veteran musicians we are honoring this year. We need your support.
