LIBERTY, NY – You couldn’t buy tickets to the five Summer Thunder Birthday Bash parties put on by radio station Thunder 102. But that didn’t make the tickets any less valuable. Hundreds of people tried their luck at winning some of the most coveted tickets in Sullivan County since the 1969 Woodstock Festival.
Held at five different locations from July 22 through August 19, the parties celebrated five years of Thunder Country in Sullivan County. The Summer Thunder Birthday Bashes also featured five different entertainers, some fairly established and others up and coming. Karen Hudson entertained at the first party on July 22 at Friends Restaurant in White Lake; the July 29 party was held at Dutch’s Tavern in Rock Hill and featured the local winner of the Colgate Country Showdown, TJ Sacco; the August 5 party featured Big John Davis of Iron Cowboy and was held at the Erie Tiki Bar in Port Jervis; David Adam Byrnes entertained at The Eldred Preserve on August 12 (photos contained in this story are from this date); and the final party on August 19 will feature Amber Hayes at Mr. Willy’s in Monticello.
ThunderHeads – the official name of Thunder 102’s listeners and fans – were able to win tickets by listening on the radio, by signing up to follow Thunder 102 on Twitter or becoming fans on Facebook, and by signing up for the ThunderHead Country Club on their cell phone.
At the parties, the attendees could play games sponsored by the Spencer Daniels Agency of Monticello and Kingston, and win entry tickets for prizes. Selected winners could also play trivia in the Yellow Prize Cab sponsored by Yellow Cab of Monticello. Plus there were munchies and music throughout.
