2011 Vershire Cabaret

If it's mud season, it's time for the Vershire Cabaret.  On April 9th we were treated to the Fifth Annual, and it did not disappoint.  There is a lot of talent in Vershire and surrounds, and we were treated to much of it.

Some old favorite acts returned and a great sprinkling of new ones.  The limited seating for this gala event was sold out way in advance.  The audience enjoyed tasty gourmet desserts while MC Jack Kruse kept things moving as each act was introduced.  The net proceeds for the evening will support the 2011 VerShare Community Camp.
