JESSI COULTER, the well-known Country singer, is coming to Cave Junction and will perform at the Illi- nois Valley Lions Labor Day Festival. Her performance is scheduled for Monday, Sept. 5 at 4 p.m. at the open air theater in Jubilee Park. Coulter, widow of Waylon Jennings, has been in- formed repeatedly by Waylon’s cousin, I.V. resident Wayne Whitfield, about the beauty of the valley, and about the wonderful people who reside here. After a ‘few’ coaxes encouraging her to visit the valley and attend the Labor Day Festival, she agreed, going one step further by signing up to do a free performance. She hopes that her performance will help raise money for the I.V. Lions Club I.V. High School Scholar- ship Fund. Prior to her performance on that day, 50/50 tickets will be available. The drawing will be held at 5:45 p.m., and the winner will receive half the collected amount. The other half will be deposited into the I.V. Lions Club’s Scholarship Fund. Autographed copies of Coulter’s most current CD also will be awarded to the holders of drawn tickets. She will sing some of her older hits including, “I’m not Lisa,” “I’m Looking For Blue Eyes,” and “Storms,” plus several new songs that will be on her soon-to-be released CD. Oregon was one of the first states to recognize Labor Day as an official holiday. (c) 2005 DBR Media Inc.
