Ron and Opal are three time recipients of the Coun- try Gospel Music Assoc Interna- tional DUO OF THE YEAR award. Though they make their home in Branson, MO, they travel the USA sharing their southern/country style gospel music all year long. Yes, once again Ron and Opal will be right here in the Quartzsite area for just a few limited engage- ments. If you've seen them in the past, or have not yet had the opportunity, don't miss this year. They first came to Quartzsite in 2000 and fell in love with the wonderful folks from all over the USA and Canada that make their win- ter home here in the desert or come for a short visit. Ron & Opal are now semi- retired and are do- ing just a few limited engagements this winter outside of Yuma which is their winter home base. New Year's Eve, 2012, Ron and Opal started a weekly concert series, Legacy Gospel Music Fel- lowship, in Yuma, AZ. The concert is held at the Community Chris- Ron and Opal return tian Church on Hwy 95 just a few miles before arriving in Yuma and just past the red light at (Araby Rd & Hwy. 95) if coming from Quartzsite. They are continuing this concert series every Tuesday afternoon at 1:00pm January - March. They are the hosts for the afternoon, along with their co-hosts Phil & Tammy Knisley. They start off with a potluck of snacks and desserts then move on to a concert with a live band from 2:00 - 3:30. If you enjoy the old type of coun- try, traditional, southern style gos- pel music or enjoy singing along with the band, Tuesdays in Yuma are for you!
