2009 here we come!

Happy New Year to everyone! 2008 was a great year in entertainment for the Resch Center and 2009 promises to be great as well! You already know Motley Crue will be here February 19 and Jeff Dunham will be here May 14. By the way, Mr. Dunham is selling extremely well with more than half of his tickets already gone. I read an article in a trade magazine the other day that said Dunham has been on the road for 20 years doing his thing and it's just the last two years where he has hit it big!

You may not have heard that Yanni will be here in the spring and we have two other major concerts in the works that will be announced early in 2009. But up next week is one of our largest shows of the year and that's The Wedding Show. So, if you or someone you know is getting married, Shopko Hall is the place to be January 9 & 10.

Snow & quick changeover

All of this snow has kept our crews busy keeping the parking lots and sidewalks clear for all of the events we have. Please be careful as you come to our complex with all of the snow out there.

This weekend will be interesting because we have a basketball game and hockey game in the same day. The Green Bay Phoenix play at 2pm and the Gamblers play at 8pm on Saturday. That means changing the basketball court over to hockey in just a few hours time. If you didn't know, UW-Green Bay plays basketball on top of ice most of the time. The basketball court is placed over protective material right on the ice.

Got your tickets for Jeff Dunham yet? A lot of people do. More than 5,000 tickets have been sold for the ventriloquist's May 14 date at the Resch Center. No other ventriloquist has been on the Tonight Show more than he has.
