ADAM GLEASON
I am the lead bartender at Moose #6 and Phantom Point Technology Services point of sale tech. I have lived in Montgomery Count for 43 years. In my spare time, I volunteer at Moose #6 and raise my son.
The song that always makes me get up and dance or sing along to is “On the Hunt” by Lynyrd Skynyrd.
I was shocked when I was asked to be a Star.
I decided to participate in the YSB fundraiser because being a Moose means we watch out for our children and our elderly. Once I heard it was for the CASA program, I was in. My family has been lucky enough to benefit from the CASA program by allowing us to love my baby sister.
The public should come to this event and support Anna and me because the house will be rockin’ and it helps benefit children in need.
ANNA TEMPLETON
I am a dance teacher. I have lived in Montgomery County for 32 years. In my spare time, I love spending time with my grandkids. I majored in dance at Philadelphia Performing Arts School and Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri. I have been teaching since I was 13 years old.
My favorite genre of music to dance to is southern rock.
I am participating in this YSB fundraiser because I love to dance and perform. I believe God gave me these gifts and what better way to use them than help the Bureau’s funding to help youth in our community.
The public should come to this event and support Adam and me because the house will be rockin’.
