2012 Heralds of Harmony Installation of Officers and Awards Banquet
The 2012 Awards and Installation of Officers took place Tuesday, January 10, 2012 at Bascom’s Chop House in Clearwater. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres started out the evening as guests arrived. Entertainment by chapter quartets Wildcard and 75 South followed by a buffet style dinner fueled everyone for the big evening of installation, awards and fine entertainment by The Barnkickers.
A big thank you to Dan Brinkmann and his lovely wife Barbara for joining us for the evening. Dan was the installing officer for the evening and after an introduction that in no way compares to his character and love for Barbershop, he installed the 2012 Tampa Chapter Officers as he taught us how Barbershop is a lot like golf! His installation was engaging and entertaining. Dan is the current Sunshine District Secretary, the 2004 Sunshine District BOTY, and all around great guy.
Awards were presented and class act entertainment was provided by The Barnkickers, a fabulous father daughter duo. Steve and Amanda Boisen are string and vocal musicians, song writers, and first class entertainers. They are
Wildcard: Shaun Reynolds, Chuck Steiner, Frank Ierna, Dean Davis
