Johnson puts on a different hat for each medley of songs.
For songs like “Singing in the Rain” and “Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head,” she wears a rain hat she found in her closet. And when she sings “Choo Choo Ch'Boogie,” “I've Been Working on the Railroad” and “This Train Is Bound for Glory,” it is in an engineer's striped hat.
Johnson encourages the audience to sing along and clap to the beat when they feel like it.

Think you can fish 24 Hours straight on September 7 & 8, 2012? We think you can, too!

Join park/lake clean-up on that Saturday, volunteers needed.

The Recycled Fish 24 Hour Fish-A-Thon is anglers fishing around the clock and around the country to raise awareness for the problems facing our fisheries, and money to help solve those problems.
Our lakes, streams and seas are in trouble. It is the result of many things, from over-consuming water to over-harvest of fish to pollution to invasive species. Many of the main issues come from problems in our broader environment because “Our Lifestyle Runs Downstream.”
Anglers – people who love to fish – are the first to notice, because we spend time on the water observing our surroundings. Problems in our environment often show up first in our waters – it all runs downstream. We’re doing something about it with the 24 Hour Fish-A-Thon.
We’re standing up as not just users of our natural resources, but as stewards. We’re raising the flag for simple things anybody can do to ensure healthy waters for fish and wildlife – and for each of us.

Think you can fish 24 Hours straight on September 7 & 8, 2012? We think you can, too!
