--strive to put our faith in action, to keep growing in our knowledge and love for God, and to transform our world by living as Jesus lived. (James 2:14-26, Colossians 1:9-12, Romans 12:1-2)

Friday Night Jamboree

Hey everybody,
As you may have seen in the previous post, we are going to a good ole' fashioned Jamboree this Friday night, up near the beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway. We will be carpooling up to The Floyd Country Store in the charming little town of Floyd, VA to experience the toe tappin' fun of the Friday Night Jamboree. Every time we go up there everyone has so much fun they want to go back, so this has become an annual (or even more often) tradition for us here at CCVT.

The Jamboree attracts some of the best Gospel and Bluegrass bands in the world -- seriously. That's no exaggeration. Every week it includes over 4 hours of Gospel and Bluegrass music and flatfoot dancing (your participation optional) all for only $5. Flatfoot dancing sounds funny, but it is easy to pick up, and everyone always has so much fun learning how to do it with their group of friends they can't stop smiling.

Meet at the campus house at 5:30pm this Friday. We will carpool for the 45 minute drive to Floyd, VA and get to the Country Store early so we can get some great seats and enjoy some delicious food before the concert. They have all kinds of sandwiches, hot dogs, and BBQ sandwiches to eat, and a large selection of ice cream, milk shakes, homemade pies, cakes, and other desserts, and old fashioned candy to buy.

If you need directions to the campus house, just look on the right side of your screen.

So that's 5:30pm Friday at the campus house. And bring $5 for admission, and a little extra if you want to buy food at the store. Bringing a friend would be good, too.

I really hope you can join us. If you've never been there before, I promise you, it'll be an experience you won't soon forget.

Hope to see you soon.
Steve
