Mystery Karaoke Friday

MARK YOUR CALENDAR!

Are you one of those people who sounds great in the shower but freeze when you get in front an audience?

Then “Mystery Karaoke” at the Community Activity Center this Friday (Aug 24) at 1900) is designed just for you.

Hidden behind the curtain, singers will be judge by their voice – not their looks. There will be both a Youth (ages 10-17) and Open (18 & above) Division, with the top two finishers in each division receiving prizes.

Winners from the Open Division will also be entered as a finalist (if desired) in the Camp Humphreys Rising Star competition scheduled for Oct 13 as part of Oktoberfest.

Entry deadline is Wednesday (Aug 22). Just stop by the front counter of the CAC or call 753-8825 (031-690-8825) to enter.
