VIDEO: Christmas in Quartzsite 2012

Greetings from sunny Quartzsite! 

Saturday, December 22nd, 2012 was Community Unity Day in Quartzsite! Organizers Gene and Maggie Ross gathered local folks from all walks of life to be Bell Ringers for our Salvation Army. Gene had already been busy for weeks, as Santa's helper, ringing that bell day in and day out, raising funds.

Also included in this video are Christmas light decorations from around town. (670 Olinger will be a dedicated separate video.)The beautiful flute music is from Quartzsite's own Mark Church. "Merry Christmas from Redfeather Rose Entertainment". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbnwoEYkYE8

When questioned about the importance of loose change donated, Gene said, "It all adds up. Just last week, there was about $400 of loose change donated! That will help a lot of people in Quartzsite!"

Funds raised stay in Quartzsite to help folks with vouchers for food, propane, & fuel at local businesses, rent, clothing and other emergency help to get folks back on their feet.

Maggie and Gene are very active members of the Covenant Lutheran Church, donating both money and lots of time for the community. This was a wonderful project and lots of folks volunteered to help.

Nashville meets Las Vegas in Quartzsite!

The Arizona Centennial Committee of Quartzsite presents the Legends of Country Music Show at the Quartzsite Improvement Association (QIA) on Sunday, February 13, 2011 at 7pm. The show benefits the Lasting Legacy Project.

Larry King continues his 25 year tradition of bringing his award winning country music show to the stage and for the first time in Quartzsite! As the owner, director, star and host of the show, King has opened for many top entertainers. Larry King is an International Recording Artist, having his music played throughout the U.S and in several countries. The late Buck Owens gave him the title “KING of Country Legends” because of his tireless dedication in keeping Classic Country Music alive for future generations.

This live, fast paced country show is 2nd to none. You will be entertained with 90 minutes of country’s #1 hit songs. Larry King, along with the Legendary Band, brings to life the songs you’ll remember from the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80’s. The Legends of Country Music pays tribute to legendary entertainers including Johnny Cash, Patsy Cline, Hank Williams, Dolly Parton, George Strait, over 20 in all, making it the largest tribute show touring today! Added to the mix is tid-bits of information about the songs or artists, family-style humor, a touching military salute, and a little gospel. Seeing this show is like taking a musical journey through the Country Music Hall of Fame.

The Legendary Band is comprised of five of the best, multi-talented musicians West of the Grand Ole Opry. Each member has performed with many of the legends featured in the show. Each performer and musician in the legends of Country Music Show takes great pride in performing the songs as close to the original as possible and the way you remember them. Adding the female touch to the show is Miss Rachel Ann from Gilbert, Ariz. She brings to life the hits from the legendary ladies of country music.

Come see this spectacular show. It will be a time you aren’t soon to forget! Show tickets are $15 in advance, $30 at the door. Purchase tickets at Town Hall, Quartzsite Business Chamber and Main St. Eatery.
