Thank You!

Claysburg P.A.S.T.'s Show "Musselman's Grove" opened to a large audience of approximately 400 people!  As with all things Claysburg style, the 20 performers did an outstanding job.  There was toe tapping music, salutes to some Claysburg performers from the past, some history and audio and video clips plus a finale of "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" with the audience participating.  The three hour show captured the hearts of those attending.  The fans repeatedly asked as they departed, "Will there be another show?"  The answer, "We will see.  It was great."

A big thank you to all the performers, stage crew, ticket and program people and all others who helped to make this a success.  It was a great evening!  

When we came up with this idea for a show, we began talking to some local people and asked them to help.  That was our best idea.  Nobody turned us down!   Betty Musselman of Klahr brought a lifetime of memorabilia for you to view in the lobby.  She has done an amazing job on the research of performances and the Grove.  Janet Claycomb Wray originally from Claysburg headed up the recruiting of musicians.  We owe each and every one of the performers a special thanks, and there are many of them.  

Musselman's Grove Stage, 2016       $65.00
