Placemats matter at Mason Holiday Meals Young people at SOCK show the place- mats they made for Mason Holiday Meals, a local program that delivers hot holiday meals to low-income homebound seniors and physically challenged adults throughout Mason County the day be- fore Thanksgiving and a day or two prior to Christmas Eve. Terri Shaw, back left, and Kelsey Martin-Keating, back right, supervised this activity of an organiza- tion also known as Save Our County's Kids. Young people in the Boys and Girls Club of Belfair are also planning to make keepsakes for recipients of these meals. Last year there were 218 such people. Mason Holiday Meals is managed by the Volunteer Center and such community partners as Faith-in-Action West Sound, Senior Services for South Sound, Catho- lic Community Services and the Lewis- Mason-Thurston Area Agency on Aging. The Thanksgiving meal delivery day is November 21, with recipients receiving meals between 12:30 and 2:30 p.m. Per- sons who would like to help should call Shaw at 426-3405 or 360-561-2200. Sourdough Slim's rodeo a one-man musical show Cowboy entertainer Sourdough Slim will bring his one-man act to Shelton for a Mason County Con- cert Association show on Satur- day, November 3. The performance by the comic and songster will begin at 7:30 that evening in the Shelton High School Auditorium. 3737 North Shelton Springs Road. Concert association members are admit- ted with their season tickets, but others may buy individual tickets for the Sourdough Slim show at Lynch Creek Floral at Fourth and Railroad downtown or at the door. They cost $20 fbr adults and $5 for students. "Audience members, im- pressed by his cascading yodels while two-steppin' and finger- ing the accordion strapped to his chest, were speechless when he did all those things and spun a flat lariat simultaneously." So wrote Appeal entertainment edi- tor Karl Horeis reviewing a Sour- dough Slim show at the Com- munity Theater in Carson City, Nevada. SOURDOUGH SLIM is Rick Crowder, who started out as a real-life cowboy. Born in Holly- wood, California, he spent much of his childhood on a family cattle ranch in the Sierra foothills. But as Crowder explains, "My true calling as a cowboy was not on the range, but rather on the stage." A childhood cut-up, he devel- oped his comic character, honed his musical and yodeling styles and garnered the nickname, "Slim," while performing in several trav- eling western bands in the Seven- ties and Eighties. Sourdough Slim emerged when he came up with the idea to meld his experiences into a solo act, based on a whim- sical accordion-playing yodeling cowhand. And so it came to pass that an entertainer juggling this odd com- bination of culturally maligned icons recently had a sold-out house rolling in the aisles at Carnegie Hall in New York. Sourdough Slim's fast-paced comedy routines, award-win- ning yodeling and ramblings of western lore are set to the loping rhythm of a repertoire of catchy tunes. Since 1988, the comical minstrel of the range has been a hit at major clubs, festivals, ihirs and cowboy events across the country. HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE "that performance at Carnegie Hall as well as at the Lincoln Center in New York City, the Kennedy Cen- ter in Washington, D.C., and the National Cowboy Poetry Gather- ing in Elko, Nevada, and on ABC's "Good Morning America." He's also entertained at Cana- da's Cowboy Festival in Calgary, Alberta, the Festival of Metro- politan Artists in New York City, the Kerrville Folk Music Festival in Texas, the International Accor- dion Festival in San Antonio, the Spirit of the West Cowboy Gath- ering in Ellensburg, the Straw- berry Music Festival in Yosem- ite, California, the San Francisco International Accordion Festival, Gene Autry's 88th birthday par- ty in Los Angeles, the Pendleton Round-Up in Oregon and many other festivals and fairs, includ- ing Island County and Puyallup in this state.
