The Julesburg Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) and Julesburg Elementary Parents Academy recently hosted a gathering for students and their families.
Award-winning singer/songwriter Dan Crow performed at Thompson Park on September 12th.  The PTO served a sloppy joe dinner before the show.
Dan Crow is one of America’s most beloved family entertainers and recording artists.  He is the star of the Emmy Award-Winning DVD adventure, “Just For Fun,” a three-time Gold Parents Choice Award Winner, and a CableAce nominated songwriter for his work on the Disney Channel.  Dan can be seen regularly on Nickelodeon and The Learning Channel. He has composed over one hundred songs for shows and movies, such as Winnie the Pooh and Dumbo.  He also performed the title song for the classic family film, “The Adventures of Milo and Otis.”
Even though most of the kids had already seen Dan perform that day in school, they couldn’t get enough of Dan, his guitar “Bob,” and his funny and interactive songs.  Dan’s famous animal sounds were a big hit, as were his medley of American Folk Songs that some of the kids and most of the parents sang along to.  Dan’s full rendition of familiar songs, including, “Yankee Doodle” and “Old MacDonald Had A Farm,” can be found on his new CD, “Sing-A-Ling,” where Dan and some friends put a new twist on old classics.
