This is our superintendent, Andy Ferguson. He's pretty awesome. He recited the poem "The Cremation of Sam McGee". It's a personal favorite of mine.
Joseph played and sang a song about bats that he wrote and sings at his campfire program. It's a great song and Joseph's pretty talented. Joseph is in interp. with me.
The only non-ranger who participated was Matthew. His mom works in resource management. He sang the most adorable rendition of "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" I've ever heard. His mother was sitting next to me in the audience and she was so proud.
Brian played and sang a song I didn't know. He works in resource management and loves snakes. 
Steve is another interp ranger that I work with and he played and sang "Follow the Drinking Gourd". He has the best laugh! We all got to join in on the chorus.
All entries had to be night/stars/moon related, even if it was loosely. I played "The Music of the Night" from "The Phantom of the Opera". It didn't go so well. As you can see, it's dark. I couldn't see the music, I couldn't see the keys, and it wasn't a full keyboard. People sang along so at least my mistakes weren't too noticeable. Tara, an interp ranger, turned pages for me. She also read a poem. 
Wheeler is also interp and she sang a song by herself, then she and Joseph sang together. They sounded awesome.
Finally, Kelly, (interp again) closed the evening by reading a poem. He's in charge of this whole event and it's gone really well. Not only do I work in an awesome place, I get to work each day with some pretty spectacular people too. 
That's so fun! It's great that you have a job you enjoy! :) And good job on the playing in the dark! I'm impressed!!
