EXCURSION TRAIN SET TO LAUNCH IN ST. MARYS, GEORGIA, OCTOBER 5 and 12
October 5: coincides with Rock Shrimp Festival, Train departs at noon, 2pm, 4pm
October 12: coincides with Build a Scarecrow and Railroad Days, Train departs at 10am, noon, 2pm, 4 pm
ST. MARYS, GA-In alliance with St. Marys Little Theatre and Theatre by the Trax, St. Marys Railroad's latest venture, "St. Marys Express," is set to make its debut with three excursions on October 5, and four excursions on October 12.
The first "Great Pumpkin Express" will leave Theatre by the Trax at noon on October 5, giving attendees of the St. Marys Kiwanis Rock Shrimp Festival an even greater incentive to join in this year's festivities. Guests may ride on one of three open-air railcars or in the caboose. Locomotive rides will also be available for train enthusiasts who desire an even more up-close rail experience.
Traveling through woodlands and marsh vistas, The Great Pumpkin Express will turn around at a midway point near the intersection of Highway 40 and St. Marys Road. Along the way, passengers will learn about the history and romance of the railroad through a live narration and be entertained by actors from St. Marys Little Theatre. Passengers will also be warned about the Zombie crossing as the train nears the midway point where a pumpkin patch, a hobo camp, and unpredictable scarecrows await them.
St. Marys Mayor, Bill Deloughy, said that an attraction of this caliber will help boost tourism for the area as well as provide opportunities for families to enjoy a pastime few people have experienced.
"I'm told that fewer than 6 percent of the population of America have ever ridden a train," Deloughy said. "We're proud that St. Marys has been chosen as the embarkation point for such a great adventure. I'm looking forward to sharing this train experience with my own grandson."
Deloughy will have plenty of opportunities to travel into yesteryear with his grandson as St. Marys Express is already looking into future excursions that include the Santa Express (November 23, 30 and December 7; an "Out of this World" excursion to coincide with Mardi Gras Festival's theme on March 1, Wild West Express and Pirates Alive Express (dates to be determined); the Peter Cottontail Express scheduled for around Easter time, and America's Birthday Express to coincide with St. Marys' Independence Day Celebration.
Katherine Marsh, spokesperson for Boatright Companies, owners of St. Marys Railroad, sees the St. Marys Express as a way of giving back to the community.
"It is our pleasure to create a new brand, the St. Marys Express, that is sure to be enjoyed by people of all ages," Marsh said. "The themed train excursions will be something that can be shared by families and at the same time will fuel the legacy of one of America's most revered forms of transportation."

9 1 Deuce Entertainment: African-American Music Month

African-American Music Month
Black Music Month
On June 7, 1979 President Jimmy Carter, declared June as Black Music Month. Black Music Month was conceived in 1978 by Kenny Gamble and broadcaster Ed Wright of the now obsolete Black Music Association. The two petitioning President Carter to have greater recognition for black music in all genres. Black Music or African-American Music consists of different genres such as Jazz, Blues, Hip-hop music, Rhythm and blues, Rock and Roll and Spiritual music.
Dyana Williams a music advocate, who founded the non-profit international Association of African-American Music Foundation, stated that Black Music does matter. She stated the following “I’ve been on a mission to share with massive numbers of people the splendor of this amazing creative force we call black music. One day, I wrote President Bill Clinton asking him to host a Black Music Month event during June. The White House informed me that while President Carter had declared June Black Music Month, he did not sign a presidential proclamation. I was stunned at this revelation, but even more shocked when the White House suggested that I lobby Congress to get legislation recognizing June as Black Music Month.
Well, what did I know about lobbying? Not a thing. I initiated a massive letter-writing campaign, wrote an editorial in Billboard, put on my most comfortable shoes and visited senators and congress people on Capitol Hill for several years. Additionally, I used the IAAAM Foundation and my platforms on radio and in television to encourage support of this endeavor. It was Rep. Chaka Fattah of Philadelphia who became my primary champion in introducing the African American Music Bill to the House of Representatives. I contributed to the draft language, and ultimately we were victorious in securing the passage of House Resolution 509.”
On Jun 2009, Present Obama proclaimed and changed the name to reflect African-American Music Appreciation Month. “NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States do hereby proclaim June 2009 as African-American Music Appreciation Month. I call upon public officials, educators, and all the people of the United States to observe this month with appropriate more activities and programs that raise awareness and foster appreciation of music which is composed, arranged, and performed by African Americans.”
The earliest recording of a black musical artist was in 1890 by George W. Johnson who became the first African American to record commercially. I grew up on the sounds of sounds of Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Teddy Pendergrass, Mahalia Jackson, Michael Jackson, Prince and many more. African-American Music has been a part of my life and will continue to be a part of my life.
In August 2011, the idea of 9 1 Deuce Entertainment was created and since then my passion for music has continued to grow. 9 1 Deuce Entertainment is an family oriented management and entertainment business focusing on Rhythm and Soul, Hip/hop, Rap and Urban genre of music. We are here to representing singers, songwriters, music producers and other types of performing arts.
The beauty of music is the creation of where it comes from, so be unique and different!
Sing, write, compose and produce from your heart!
