It’s Happening at Chinook Winds in January...
by Teresa simmons
The Coasters and The Drifters
in Concert
Two for the price of one will be offered at Chinook Winds on January 17-19
with The Coasters and The Drifters in concert.
These legendary groups with hits reaching back to the 1950s have toured
around the world and back again. Whether it’s the romantic ballads of The Drifters
or the songs that made us chuckle by The Coasters, their music brings fond
memories to the minds of generations of Americans.
Young America found humor in rock ‘n roll with The Coasters, beginning
with their first big hit in 1956. Down In Mexico propelled The Coasters to fame,
followed by Poison Ivy, Charlie Brown, Yakety Yak, and Love Potion #9.
The Drifters have had their share of gold records, including There Goes My
Baby, This Magic Moment, Save The Last Dance For Me, and Up On The Roof.
They have long been known not only for their heart-tugging tunes, but for their
marvelous choreography.
These groups were pioneers of the Motown sound. This collaboration of talent
is to be savored as these groups perform music full of memories to fill your heart
full of soul. Tickets are $ 15-$25, depending on seat location

J___ I
On Dec. 2, Chinook Winds accepted delivery of 150 Rotary wreathes. Each
year, the Lincoln City Rotary Club sells wreathes to raise money for
scholarships. For the past several years, Chinook Winds has purchased 150
wreathes and used them to decorate the casino. This year, the casino donated
75 wreathes to local schools for resale to raise much-needed funds. Pictured

Words of Praise From Mary
Watkins, a Guest on Nov. 19
God bless your tribe of Siletz and the casino for the most meaningful
program you have ever put on in all of your seven years. Veteran’s Day 2002.
We attend all of J your big
o star shows and this meant so much more to so many
of US.
From the colors being displayed in such a special way by your warriors to
the wonderful Lincoln Pops Orchestra to the golden voices of the singers and
the flag presentation from Congress, many a tear was shed, many a memory
was restored, many a heart was touched.
When you remember our warriors and veterans, you touch a nerve forever!
I lost my husband in the service.
