The Follies’ third-edition Souvenir Book is now at the printer and will be arriving in time for early-December shipment. Editions one and two sold-out and have become among our most popular collectibles. Throughout its 28 glossy, full-color pages (plus centerfold), the Follies’ second decade is commemorated with all-new extraordinary photos and fascinating accounts chronicling the show’s costumes, sets, cast, variety acts, guest stars and a rarely seen “behind the scenes” peek of the Follies’ backstage and dressing room.

It’s the perfect memento of your Follies visit or a cherished gift to someone who’s never been. Order now in time for the holidays!

Recently, Ambassador Manager Dolores Dey and Ambassador Rex Waggoner motored over 1,000 miles through Arizona and Nevada (traveling Route 66 wherever possible!), telling folks about the Follies’ newest edition Get Your Kicks! Along the way, they hosted “behind the scenes” educational presentations in three different towns to packed houses!

Part of the day’s events included attending the 2008 Marine Birthday Pageant.The Follies has been a long-time sponsor of the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in nearby Twentynine Palms, California. Recently, the base again invited Follies representatives as part of their second annual Sponsorship Appreciation Day – a fascinating daylong base tour, which this year, included attendance at the 2008 Marine Birthday Pageant.

Follies Ambassadors Marilyn Purdy and Adam Mick, both Korean War Veterans, enjoyed the gracious hospitality shown them by Brig. Gen. Charles Gurganus and all base personnel.

Under the auspices of the base’s “Operation Enduring Families” program, this and other activities help ease the difficulty of separation from loved ones serving abroad, especially during the holiday season.  If you’ve attended this wonderful evening in past years, you’ll know how inspiring it is to meet these courageous individuals.

Route 66 fans are a fun bunch . . . and we encourage them all to wear their Road Regalia when visiting the Follies.
