Holiday Cheer Christmas Party/Dance to benefit the American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Schnecksville Area
Christmas is just around the corner. That means it’s time to PARTY!!! And there is no better way to celebrate the giving season than by giving to a great cause!
Valerie Borman will be hosting a benefit dance/party for the Relay For Life of Schnecksville Area on Friday, December 10th at the Schnecksville Fire Co. Social Hall. Join her in the festivities from 7 p.m. – 11 p.m. The doors open at 6:30 p.m.
The evening features live music, including Valerie Borman, the members of The Lehigh Valley’s Ultimate Party Band, The Starlites, their good friend from Nashville, Tom Williamson, and possibly some surprise guests! (You will have to be there to find out who they are!) There will also be fun for the whole family with the world-famous Nasty Christmas Shopping Game hosted by ACS Staff Partner, Wendy Stickler. The Relay For Life teams will be offering additional food and fundraisers.
Tickets are available in advance at discount rates online HERE. Tickets will also be available at the door during the event at regular price. The ticket price includes soda/mixers, snacks and the aforementioned FUN!! This is a family event, so bring your kids, friends, neighbors and anyone who wants to have a great time and help out the American Cancer Society! This is also a BYOB event – the PLCB won’t allow the serving of any alcohol – so please BRING YOUR OWN!
A note from Valerie: I began volunteering for the ACS because I have watched many friends and family members battle this disease. I want to be on the front-line to help find a cure. Cancer is a disease that affects EVERYONE. We all know someone – a friend, a family member, a co-worker, a neighbor – who is a Cancer Survivor. (If you have lived ONE DAY with cancer – you are a SURVIVOR!!) Please help me to celebrate our Survivors and the holiday season this year. -Valerie
Join Valerie Borman and support the American Cancer Society at Holiday Cheer 2010!!!
Valerie Borman Blog – My Thanksgiving
November 12, 2010
It’s hard to believe that it is November, with Thanksgiving just around the corner, as I am sitting here outside writing this. The temperature is 71 degrees, the sun is shining and I want to go out and play! But first, I’ve got a few things to finish.
So far this month, I’ve been taking more time for songwriting. I am very pleased to have finished the lyrics of a song I’ve been writing for our Veterans – now, I need to finish the music!! It’s so very exciting for me to be engaging in the creative process. As a singer, I’ve always envied songwriters – not that I would ever trade my vocal talent. But to CREATE the music and lyrics is truly AWESOME. Every time I hear a song like “Moments” or “In Color” I get goosebumps. I want to write THOSE songs!!! For now, I’ll write my songs.
I’m still riding the high that I felt after performing in PA last month and reconnecting with friends, family and NHS alumni. (Yes, I’ve been searching you all out on Facebook!!) So I’ve been wishing I could have it happen again. What’s the best way to get everyone back together?? I’m going to perform in PA again!! Keep reading!
Those of you who know me know that I see my life as a means to give back, pay it forward… however you term it, I believe that I live – and sing! – to serve. Whatever performance I schedule for myself I would prefer to be of benefit to someone or some organization. Not having had the opportunity to volunteer for the American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life this past year, I realized I had my cause. So, this month I will be preparing for a Christmas Party Dance to benefit the American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life of Schnecksville. The performance will take place on Friday, December 10th from 8 p.m. to 12 p.m. – mark your calendars!! As soon as the details are available – they will be posted.
Thanksgiving is, as I said, just around the corner. I am, as always, thankful. However, I don’t celebrate Thanksgiving in November; I celebrate it every day. My life is blessed beyond belief. I have a wonderful family, amazing friends, and talent/career opportunities that very few can claim. My day, every day, begins and ends with my giving thanks for each and every blessing in my life. And today, I want you to know that YOU are counted among my blessings. Thank you always for your support, friendship and love. Have a very Happy Thanksgiving!!
Valerie Borman Blog – Nothing like coming home
October 12, 2010
When I began planning my sets for the Heidelberg-Lynn Township historical Society’s Pioneer Day 2010, I had no problem choosing the first number. For years, I’d waited for the opportunity to sing Carolyn Dawn Johnson’s “Simple Life” in my hometown of New Tripoli, PA because for me, it is autobiographical – so much so, I was asked if I wrote the song… I WISH!!!
“I have wandered this world far and wide. I’ve been all around and to the other side, but there’s nothing like coming home….nothing like coming home.”
Singing Carolyn’s lyrics under the most beautiful sunny sky on October 2nd was one of the most memorable moments of my career. I grew up a “stone’s throw” from the Ontelaunee Park on Borman Rd. (Yep – I’m not kidding. The state named the road after my family.) I remember as a kid hearing the music coming from the Park every Sunday afternoon. I also remember driving past the entrance and seeing the names of the artists who were playing there: Porter Wagoner, Loretta Lynn, Conway Twitty and Buck Owens – ahhh, Hee Haw. The Ontelaunee Park had a history of hosting the biggest names in Country Music like Johnny Cash and Hank Williams – and I wanted to be part of that history. My childhood dream had finally come true.
But the magic of my perfect day didn’t end there. It’d been a long time since I lived in New Tripoli and worked at my parents’ butcher shop/retail store, Rose Valley Farm. It had been years since I graduated from Northwestern Lehigh High School. (Just remember – I’m only 29!!) October 2nd became a homecoming AND reunion all in one. Everyone with whom I spoke was a part of my personal history: people who knew me as a kid behind the counter in the butcher shop; alumni from dozens of graduating classes of NHS; my former teachers and classmates; friends with whom I’d participated in the Relay For Life of Northwestern Lehigh. There were lines of people just waiting to chat with me. I have never felt so loved and appreciated. And the best part of all of this – my family was there with me. My Mum and Dad were feeling well enough to come to the show. It was THE perfect performance.
I am so thrilled that I got to share my personal history and Pennsylvania Dutch heritage with my wonderful friend, and guitarist, Tom Williamson. He flew from Nashville to PA to join me on my “personal high for a day.” (Sorry about the tour of Philadelphia, Tom!) I took him on my personal tour of Borman Rd and Mosserville and even got him to ask my Dad over the mic, “Kuscht du mikka funga?” I still laugh every time I think about it.
When the gig ended, we took the party to the Leather Corner Post Hotel, the “Home Of The Boombas,” to see the Dr. Jim Band. (I will have to find the video of me playing Boomba and post it here on the website!) The members of this awesome rock ensemble were also classmates – and neighbors – of mine “back in the day.” The musical magic led to an all-night kitchen jam in Jim and Laura’s kitchen. And at 5 a.m., I still wasn’t ready for the best day ever to end. There is “nothing like coming home!”
