The race is for the strong in spirit.
Do you need a pit-stop to recover, refresh, and refill? Then the 2012 Senior Living Celebration is the place for you!
The pit crew consists of speaker and entertainer Kay DeKalb Smith and "home-grown" musicians who know how to make a pit-stop one of the most entertaining yet spiritually uplifting aspects of the race.
You will also have workshop opportunities led by leaders who love to encourage and equip all faith racers!
So -– mark the date, round up your friends and race on over to a Celebration near you for one of the best pit-stops ever!
Special Guest
Kay DeKalb Smith is returning to Kentucky after six years to help us celebrate! Described by many as the "Carol Burnett of Christian Entertainment," this red-headed ball of enthusiasm from Nashville, Tennessee, will tickle your funny bone with NEW material and a couple of classics – all while immersing your heart and mind in the important claims of the gospel. You don't want to miss this pit-stop!
Music will be provided by local talent. From a senior adult choir to a quartet, you’ll be tapping your toes and clapping your hands!
