comment from Len Bobinski, regarding the "Dancing in the Stars" fundraiser, 2/19/08

We attended the Dancing In The Stars fundraiser on February 15, 2008, with a group of eight and everyone had great praise for a wonderful night.  The Center Stage Jazz band did an excellent job playing all our favorite tunes.  We enjoyed dancing on The Celebrations Unlimited dance hall floor and had plenty of room to float around the hall.  One of the highlights of the evening was the raffles that were spaced throughout the evening which kept the guests in suspense.  The Ladies and Gents that were the dollar dancers were striking and excellent dancers.  We're still hearing good comments from our friends on what a great time everyone had.  You know everyone had a good time because they all stayed till the end and forced the band to continue playing for another 20 minutes or so. Thanks again for a splendid evening.

Your lead Alto Sax man (Bob Blankenburg) is a dear friend of mine.  We were Navy Musician buddies many years ago and I was privileged to 'sit in' (at the 1st Tenor Sax chair) for a few minutes with your band during a rehearsal in a gymnasium somewhere there in Plainville.  I was enjoying a few days visit with Bob and his lovely wife Marilyn (Lynn) at their then Plainville home.  This was shortly after the 911 debacle that took place in Sept. of 2001.  The Plainville Wind Ensemble group is surely a winner, and the members I met were very nice to me.  I wish you all much success and 'good playing' always.
