Members of the “Good Olde Boys” band include: Duane Anderson, Joe Duheme, Don Geneau, Silas Gustafson, Daren McLaughlin, Kevin McLaughlin, Doug Michaud and Don Peters. The musicians have volunteered many hours performing at the Maine Veterans’ Home in Caribou as well as a wide variety of other locations throughout Aroostook County and Canada.
“These band members have not only entertained our veterans in Caribou, they have been at similar facilities from Fort Kent to Houlton and from Ashland to Grand Falls in Canada,” stated St. Peter. “They have volunteered many hours of their time performing for our veterans at the Maine Veterans’ Home, it might have been only one or two members or all of them; it makes no difference,” he continued, “the band members are always welcomed back to entertain our veterans and their families.”
“We the members of the Lister/Knowlton VFW Post 9389 salute and thank you all, you men are truly ‘the good olde boys,” added St. Peter.
The Caribou Performing Arts Center has enjoyed “The Good Olde Boys’, in the past and they again will take the stage for the Sunday, Dec.7, Seniority Christmas Party.
