Look! The apocalypse did not happen! The drag queens came, they provided entertainment to over 175 adults over the age of 21 at The Lockstone in Albion for a few hours, and they left.

No children were harmed in the event, no clergy were harmed either. The general public was not harmed either and a local business was able to host a great event.

I kept thinking that this was going to turn out like the movie “To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar,” starring Patrick Swayze and Wesley Snipes. I was waiting for something like “Strawberries are Red,” and dancing on a set of picnic tables….if you know you know.

I am happy that all went off without a hitch and the village of Albion is better for it! Albion can hold a progressive event that focuses on fun, entertainment, and most of all some fabulous wigs! I know that all that attended had fun and some fantastic food!

Thank you to The Lockstone, Ms. Darienne Lake, Mrs. Kasha Davis, Ms. Aggy Dune and Ms. Ambrosia Salad! Brava! Come back soon to where so many people need you to spread the word of love and kindness. It will always dispel the darkness!

As Mrs. Kasha Davis would say, “There’s always room for kindness!”
