Hello, ELVIS fans;
I am so thrilled to start up this Elvis Fan Club. It has been a dream of mine for years.
After visiting Graceland for Elvis' birthday in January 2007 I decided to take action and make my dream a reality. We have had an Elvis Meet-up group in Tampa for almost 4 years now, and I had just visited the EPE Administration offices and met with EPE personnel. It was a great experience.
Our club meets the 1st Saturday of each month at 2pm at Perkin's Restaurant (612 N. Dale Mabry, Tampa FL). We'd love to meet YOU also. We have a friendship and bond through Elvis, a living testiment to his legacy.
On a personal note, Elvis came into my life through my mother and her love for him. I continued loving Elvis in his music, movies and concerts. I started my collection of Elvis memorabilia as a teenager at carnivals by winning pictures of Elvis from throwing darts. My collection has continued ever since and has grown to 3 rooms in my house, and my van. In a 1993 article in the Tampa Tribune's BayLife section they wrote "she has Elvis from floor to ceiling and all around". I go to Elvis events 2 - 3 times a month. My favorite Elvis song is "My Way"!
Elvisly yours,
Vickie L. May |
