Shakers Fans of the Week & Employee of the Week



The West Fargo VFW was hopping last weekend and it was nice to see a lot of familiar faces. Special thanks to the "Shakers Girls" who were out in their specially made Shakers T-shirts. Nice touch, pink on black! They sent us the pictures on this post. Also thank you to Derek and Amy Lilly. We played for their wedding dance on October 11 and it was one to remember! Derek and Amy were out both Friday and Saturday at the VFW so counting the week prior to the wedding, where they saw us at the Windbreak, they have now been out to see us 3 weeks in a row. The amazing thing is they are not sick of us yet!

The Shakers Employee of the week was a somewhat bitter battle between Donny and Dave. Donny fixed the light controls on Friday night prior to our performance, which means he went without dinner. That made him look like an easy choice for the revered award but then Dave mentioned he designed and ordered new business cards so the competition heated up. During the debate, hosted by yours truly, it was determined that Dave was supposed to have done the business cards in September, thereby eliminating him from the competition. Bud almost got out of last place this week for mooching 2 pizzas out of the VFW that we ate while loading up but it was not enough to swing the voters.

We have the upcoming weekend off and then we play the Roadhouse on Saturday, November 1 for their Halloween party. It should be a lot of fun! See you there.
