Cary on tour back in 1976-77.
Our cast spent the last four days of October 1976 in Regina, Saskatchewan.
It was a cold afternoon on Halloween, where we spent some time in a park.
Cary Bassani and several other cast members were fortunate to share
the warmth of a barbeque grill while roasting marshmallows.
From left to right are: Kathy Libby, Sue Hodgeson, Ilene Lochman,
Cary Bassani, and Sherri Marsh.

Somewhere in Kansas or Missouri (can't recall where) our cast participated in a parade.
Prior to the parade, Mike Knowles dug out his guitar to practice some UWP songs for
the parade. Cary Bassani, Susie Jones and Doris Zichy were enjoying the music and
comraderie.

During our first semester UWP shows in Canada, Cary was frequently seen
doing the clog while the cast performed "Wabash Cannon Ball". The photo below
is one of those times when Cary danced the clog with Kayla Sue Parker.

Cary was also a frequent participant in that 50's sock hop, rock and roll
song called Rippin' Along with the Boogie. The photo below
shows one of those times when Cary danced Boogie with Sharon Brutger
while Jeff Kinder played guitar and sang the solo.
