Who will be crowned the Glade American Idle? Who will solve the mystery of the night and become known as the Glade’s super sleuth?
Come for a fun evening of dinner, entertainment, and a hilarious spoof of the famous original show that has captured the nation's energy and excitement. Upbeat from the beginning as Paula O’Doule, Simon Foul and Randy Jax along with a few others work the crowd to see who in the audience is brave enough to compete for a spot on “American Idle — Glade Style.” The lucky contestants who will be on stage will have a minute and a half to impress our distinguished panel of judges including audience members who will become a part of the panel. Who will make it to the second and final round? Who will get the buzzer as the crowd jeers the judges? There will be hilarity, intrigue, mystery and interactive audience participation by those who desire to be "ham for an evening."
You’ll hear the lovely Wynonna Juggs, founder of Doublecup Records and queen of country music who will also reward our Idle winner with a million dollar recording contract (fat chance). Also for your music pleasure Paul Ankle, famous teen idol of the '50s and '60s, will entertain and be one of the hosts.
Just what will happen? What is the intrigue? Who will be responsible? Will it be a one of the star struck rejected contestants or one of our overzealous judges or…will it be someone else in the crowd? You will help to solve the mystery and vote for the Idle of your choice who will go home with the trophy of American Idle — Glade Style. Someone will claim the name of Super Sleuth. Sit back, relax and enjoy the mayhem, mystery, music and the hilarity. Be prepared for a roaring good time, but beware, you may become part of the mystique!
American “Idle” Glade Style will be presented Monday, Nov. 16, with doors opening at 5 p.m. at the Fairfield Glade Community and Conference Center and a cash bar will be available. Act I starts at 5:30 p.m. with dinner served at 6 p.m. Tickets are $25 per person and include an evening of entertainment, mystery, audience participation and a dinner of glazed, bourbon-marinated grilled chicken breast, herbed rice, green beans with julienne carrots, mixed greens salad, rolls, carrot cake, iced tea and coffee.
Tickets are available at Collage and Audiology Associates in the Village Green Mall in Fairfield Glade, at the First National Bank on Peavine Road or at the First National Bank on Main Street in Crossville. Tickets may also be secured by calling Cynthia Rossiter at 456-1225.

New Corvette Club shares love for flair, design
If you were reaching maturity during the 1950s through '60s, you were probably either a Chevy guy or a Ford guy. While Chevy guys had reason to admire Ford Thunderbirds and Mustangs, the Chevy sports car enthusiasts have had an ace-in-the hole with the advent of the first production Corvette in 1953 — only six months after it debuted as a GM prototype.

The River WILD!
The Big South Fork of the Cumberland River winds its way through the 125,000 acres of the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area before flowing into the Cumberland River and Lake Cumberland in Kentucky. It’s a free-flowing river, with no dams to control release of the water, but the scenery and the magnificent rock formations make it a favorite of paddling enthusiasts who watch the weather to see if they can get out and explore areas that are hard to reach by foot.
