The Chuck Wagon Supper SHOW begins on July 2 and runs through Sep 5. We have a great show planned as well as a great supper. The prices are $22 for adults and $12 for children. Children 3 and under are free. You get a 10% discount if you make and pay for reservations at our website: www.chuckwagonaz.com.
We would like to invite you to bring your family, church or civic group up to Lakeside, Arizona for the day - or the weekend - and enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery, cool summer weather and, of course, a chuck wagon supper show that will fill your belly and tickle your funny bone.
We are proud to provide a wholesome and thoroughly enjoyable entertainment choice which is appropriate for the whole family!
Once again, we are planning a wonderful variety show which will include some singing, some picking, some comedy and even a little trick shooting. That's right, we are gonna have Felicity do a quick draw and shoot balloons out of Billy Ray Hay Bail's hands!
Get with your family and/or church group and plan an unforgettable trip up to Lakeside this summer. I know you will not be disappointed! See you there.

KSMU YOUTH IN BLUEGRASS CONTEST
The 2009 KSMU Youth in Bluegrass Contest was held at Silver Dollar City in Branson on May 23 and 24 at the Opera House Theater. There were 19 bands from all over the United States. The Bost Family Traditions scored 410/500 points and came in 6th place.
The most striking facet of the competition was how GOOD these young folks are. I would say that many of the best young musicians in America were on the stage. Our whole family was just overwhelmed by the quality of musician we saw.
Given the quality of the competition, I can say without reservation that I am very proud of the Bost Family Traditions. They put on a great performance for a capacity crowd.
We also made a lot of new friends. As a general rule, the folks competing in the contest were friendly and congenial. SDC sponsored a pizza party/jam on Saturday night so the young folks could socialize. My hat is off to D.A. Callaway for organizing a great event.
The competition was a great experience and we hope to compete again in two years.

Family Update - June 2009
Dear Friends,
I'm writing to you from Alamosa, Colorado. The mountains are still capped with snow and the weather is cool. We are overjoyed having just left Oklahoma and 100+ degrees of high humidity. We are looking forward to spending the rest of June in Colorado, cooling off and seeing many old friends.
Micah has done a great job driving this past month. He piloted the van all the way to Branson and now back to Colorado without a mishap. He finished his first semester of college. He is planning to take the summer off from academics and concentrate on the churck wagon supper show.
Faith and Liberty are both in the Alamosa Walmart. They are happier than pigs in a mud waller. Faith was having Walmart withdrawals while we were laid over at Santa Rosa, NM a couple of days. Santa Rosa is a nice town but there is no Walmart.
Felicity and Charity are well and always up to something new. We took them to Foss Lake in Oklahoma to spend the day in the water and beat the heat. Charity was not in the lake five minutes before she saw a little green water snake. She nearly "walked on the water" she jumped so high. No worries though. William was ready, willing and able to protect the ladies from the monster snake. He even put his head underwater!
Jon is doing a great job and we have discovered that he really enjoys water too. It rained for several days at Silver Dollar City in Branson - but that did not stop Jon from jumping in every puddle and standing under ever roof drain. He stayed soaked.
Pamela and I are both well and grateful for all our friends and family who help us on our way. Darrell & Nimra Rhoden put up with us (put us up) for almost ten days at Springfield, MO. John & Sherry Cooper helped us out at Silver Dollar City. We had a great time experiencing genuine Missouri Mexican food! We couldn't do it without the kindness and hospitality of our friends. Thanks!
Did I mention that Brooklyn was married on June 8? Have a look at the article later in the newletter to get all the details! Till we see you again, we pray you have a great summer season. With all our love and affection.

Youth in Bluegrass-Branson
The 2009 KSMU Youth in Bluegrass Contest will be held at Silver Dollar City in Branson on May 23 and 24 at the Opera House Theater. The event will begin a 3pm on both days.
There are twenty bands competing from all over the country. While the contest is meant to feature young performers under 21 years of age, parents who play in family bands are permitted to compete with their children.
The prizes are $1200 from first place, $1000 for second place, $800 for third place, $600 for fourth place and $400 for fifth place.
While the Bost Family Traditions are grateful to be selected to compete in such an renowned contest - I think that the learning opportunity as well as friendships likely to develop will make the trip well worth while.
We look forward to pickin' out peculiar brand of bluegrass for everybody. I tell the children everyday: If you have done your best, then you are the winner!
Hope we see you there rootin' for us come contest day!

May Family Update
Dear Friends,
We are back on the road again. We had a wonderful month at home doing about five years of spring-cleaning. In hind-site, I think I'm glad we are back on the road because Pamela nearly worked me to death with her never ending"honey-do" list of things to do.
We are sitting in High Rolls, NM this week on the first leg of our journey to Branson, Missouri. The first week on the road has been a roller coaster ride of concerts and driving and driving and concerts. The children seem to be more flexible than me and have bounced back like world champs! They are chomping at the bit to get to Silver Dollar City.
Brooklyn is living with Gramma in Buckeye and trying to adapt herself to the heat. Micah has nearly finished his first semester of college and doing very well. Faith and Liberty are experimenting with fake eye-lashes and that has been a lot of fun to watch. Charity has finally got a confident handle on a two wheel bike and now she and Felicity are having a ball riding around the country. William is learning how to be patient with a very demanding little brother, Jon.
Pamela and I are also quite well and looking forward to our summer tour. We will be in Missouri by next week where the children will be participating in the KSMU Youth in Bluegrass Contest at Silver Dollar City in Branson. The children have worked very hard to get here and we know that - regardless of the results - they are all winners.
Have a look at our special features this month and, by all means, please come see us if we are anywhere near where you live. We look forward to spending some time with you. Until then, God bless and keep you. . .

February Family Update
Dear Friends,
The clouds are rolling in and the air smells like fresh desert rain as I sit caught between writing our monthly email newsletter and gazing out the window at the rugged, beautiful prairie. We've been parked here at the Yuma Proving Grounds for the past few days (on the California side!) and have really been enjoying the wondrous view! William loves the open spaces for riding his trike while Felicity and Charity are enjoying the abundance of mud for mud pies! Yummy! ;)
January was a good month for the Bost Family. We've been enjoying seeing all of our snowbird friends again (you know who you are!) and putting on our Winter show. It's such a blast! We're real glad to see Billy Ray Haybale back again this year (for those of you who don't know this downright nice feller, he's a character from the Bost Family comedy routine performed at RV Resorts this year). We can't believe we're already over half way through the RV season. Looking back, it's apparent that time flies when you're having fun!
In early January, we left our home in Bisbee, Arizona and headed out to Yuma. On our way there we stopped in Tucson at the Desert Trails RV Resort. It was a great evening of reconnecting with old friends. Thanks so much to all of you! Then, it was off to Wellton before finally arriving in Yuma. While in Wellton, it was great to see Mick and Fran at our show at the Sun Country RV Park! Mick and Fran, friends from Oregon, are always such a blessing to be around! We've now been in Yuma for a month (with a layover in Buckeye with our Nana! We LOVE you!) and will be heading back to the Phoenix area this Saturday. Goodbye to fantastic night skies and beautiful desert storms!
