Umy and the Goodtimers! Wow! They played from time to time at the little stage on the turnstyle side of the Hospitality House. When we had greeting lines with SDC citizens saying hello and goodbye to the guests this band was playing some good ol' bluegrass and traditional music. At that time, late 70's early, early 80s, it would have been highly unusual to have someone in a wheelchair actually performing in the 1880s area of the park. Umy and the Goodtimes played as close as they could get, and they did a great job. I have done my Jed Clampett shuffle to their music while portraying Junior many times. Thanks for bringing back some good memories. They usually played, I think, during the Mountain Folks Music Festival held each spring. Maybe at a few other times through the year, too. They were not a regular group. They just appeared every now and then.
