SARA AWARDS, Savannah’s most exciting gay
event, was held Saturday, March 19th at the city’s
famous vaudeville theater, the Lucas. Not only did
they throw in an array of Georgia peaches, they threw
in some peanuts too, like the founder and M.C. John
Brinson and assorted local drags. Miss Savannah
SUSIE WONG, was just darling and showed much
talent. LADY CRISTEL, was a picture of loveliness.
Ebony Delite, Daphne Devoe, Judy D’lite and just a
scream was MAGONIA THUNDER PUSSY . I’m
certianly glad they did not decide to put her name in
lights on this Irish week-end in Savannah!
DIAMOND LIL opened the festivities and was in
great form...if the home folks didn’t know her then
they do now! RACHEL WELLS, and SAYTN I)E
VILLE turned in top performances after some sound
problems but you’d think the hicks in town would just
go up and tip the stars and not try to pose for pictures
and are you ready, ask for change...RACHEL should
have slaped her off the stage...local drags peanut-
s . ROBY LANDERS did her bit that we all had
waited, two hours to see at DR. FEELGOOD’S disco
the night before only this time she did the God Bless
America bit ., i> . : X I

what the award meant than guests, which is the way it
shoukJ bevr.However, some left nothing to the
imaginatforTMis^" Chicken Queen, Miss New Girl in
Town, Miss Baloney
Curies,Miss Wrong Infor

Miss Dish Queen, and the

Mess . JOHN BRINSON
was presented a very
special SARA AWARD
for this effort for the last
eighteen years in
organizing and staging
the awards...This he
certianly deserved and is
certianly to be
congratulated for his
trying effort and great
success.
“Thank you so much,
it is a real thrill and this
award will mean so much
more to me knowing it
comes from our peers.”
He beamed as he ac
cepted the award from
COURTNEY F ALLIN.
The fun event and
show is presented each
year around St. Patrick
Day and my dear if you
missed this one, plan next
year to be there...I fell in
love there many years
ago and it was a thrill for
me to go and visit the side
of the building my love
was propped against
watching the parade go
by until I swept him away
to paradise...Inciden-
tialy, PARADISE cost
me a fortune and he has
gone on to greater
things,“BUT I’M STILL
HERE!”. Thanks TOM
