“We had a great show Sunday afternoon,” Peter LaPonte (event director) said. “Jo Dee Messina did a 10-song encore. It was incredible. It was magic. She just kept playing and the crowd was loving it. It was outside of her normal set. After her show, she told us how happy she was with our venue and she hugged several of our volunteers and thanked everybody.”

Because Messina’s show ran into the twilight, it became the Jamboree’s first Sunday show played under the lights.
