Spotlight-Brandy Young!

Iyanla on the Oprah network was talking once about how you know when you are pushing yourself far enough.  She says that when you feel just a little like you are going to pee your pants, that is the line.  That's when you know.  If you actually pee your pants, you have pushed your self too far. 

For the most part the casino night is making me feel a bit like throwing up every time I think of it.  Which for the record, is all the time.  I will be happy when more tickets sell.  That's the biggest part.  It feels like your throwing a party and invited all your friends but not everyone one has replied yet.  We have sold thirteen tables, eleven of eight and one of six and one of four.  Lisa B Originals has been a huge help for us with ticket sales.

I am going to be showcasing a bit of our talent in the upcoming blogs.

Brandy Young
Brandy Young has been singing since she could talk. Her first performance was when she was 8 years old. She's sang at many fundraisers and talent shows. Over the past 15 years, she's competed in the Yorkton GX94 and 620 CKRM Big Country Talent Shows. In 2008, she won the CMT Karaoke Star for Saskatchewan and got to go on to Toronto for the finals to represent her province. In 2011, she won the Sheila Ann Memorial for the 620 CKRM competition winning a session to record her single I'm Not Sorry. Brandy has sang at Craven's Mainstage for the past 6 years, Casino Regina's Show Lounge and Yorkton Painted Hand Casino, last year winning the Painted Hand Talent Show.

Brandy has been a huge supporter of FFOH.  She has preformed at our auction in the past.  This long term support is something that we are so impressed with.  Brandy is one of our three performers for the evenings entertainment. 

I will keep you all posted.  It continues to unfold in an amazing way with plenty of surprises yet to come! 

I will finish by saying, Please buy tickets!  If this evening is not successful, FFOH will only have about seven thousand dollars to last until our spring auction.  We will be out of money by January. 

Happy Thanksgiving all!  I am counting my blessings this weekend.  And all of you are on my list for reading.  Thank you all!

"And there but by the grace of God, go I."
