Music
by The
Falls
with Mr.
Dave
Elmore
Pendleton,
Indiana
– This
past
Sunday,
what has
become
an
annual
event,
the
Pendleton
Lions
Club
presented,
the
first
concert
for 2009
at the
Gazebo
in Falls
Park.
The
entertainer
who was
originally
scheduled,
Mr.
Gordon
Brooks,
was
suddenly
taken
ill just
prior to
Sunday’s
concert.
Mr. Dave
Gilmore,
from
Fortville,
Indiana,
agreed
to
replace
Mr.
Brooks
for the
first
concert
of 2009.
This was
the
first
time
that I
had
heard
Mr. Dave
Elmore
perform.
His
blend of
Southern
Gospel
and
classic
rock
was, in
a word,
wonderful.
Mr.
Elmore
provided
the kind
of first
class
entertainment
area
residents
experienced
from
these
concerts
in Falls
Park.
The
Pendleton,
Indiana
Lions
Club
is one
of the
most
visible
civic
organizations
in
Pendleton.
Formed
in the
late
20’s and
now
numbering
approximately
50
members,
the
Pendleton
Lions
Club’s
involvement
in this
community
is
unmatched.
Not only
do they
sponsor
local
projects
and
fundraisers
like the
Pendleton’s
June
Jamboree,
which
starts
June 2nd,
they
have
also
take the
lead in
many
other
community
projects
ranging
from
Playground
equipment
in Falls
Park to
scholarships
for area
students.
The
Pendleton
lions
are also
very
active
in other
projects
which
are part
of the
Lions
Club
organization’s
efforts.
In 1925,
Helen
Keller
challenged
Lions
to
become
"knights
of the
blind in
the
crusade
against
darkness."
They
accepted.
Today,
sight
programs
remain
one
their
defining
causes.
