January
4th, 2015 to January 10th, 2015
I can’t think of a better way to begin the new year than with a party
and what a party we had! The New Year
Dance Party kicked off a year of celebration of the 18th Anniversary of Treasure Island Oldies. And we’ll
celebrate with 18 specials throughout 2015 plus we’ll have a year-long contest
with a winner every month. We’ve teamed up with our good friends at TNJ Poster Creations to give you the
chance to win the post of your choice from a selection of over 400. For
complete details on how to enter the contest, just click the Celebrate 18 logo
. And I’m pleased to announce the first winner: Peter Campanella from Valley Stream, New York. Peter chose the Tribute to Bobby Fuller Four poster as
his prize. And if you enter and don’t win in the current month, your name will
still be among the entries eligible to win. Let’s all celebrate this milestone
together. Good luck!
Happy
Birthday wishes go out to Jill Brown
Sykes in Cambridge, Ontario and Shirley Ham in Cincinnati, Ohio. If your birthday is coming up soon, be sure to
get the details to me so that I can wish you Happy Birthday and also play Birthday by The Beatles for you. Send the info to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
