I have just returned from a singing event in my little town that took place this morning. I actually was one of the judges, and it was so much fun. There were only four contestants but that was okay. The youngest contestant was four years old, and she sang a song about a little piggie doing the boogie. There was a duet by a husband and wife; and then there were also two teenagers that sang. Everyone got a prize today and that was cool.
The event took place on a friend's farm, and it was the first time that they had sponsored this contest. There will be another one in the fall at the pumpkin festival. Hopefully by then, there will be more contestants to join in the fun.
The setting was a barn and you could hear the animals all around. The MC did a wonderful job of getting everyone in a good mood with a few jokes to start. This helped the performers to relax. I think a fun time was had by all. My pay for a couple of hours of volunteering was a gallon of strawberries. Not a bad day's pay I would say.
