In 2015, working with the Capitol Theatre, Franklin County Visitors Bureau (FCVB) started A Cappella & Unplugged, so 2019 celebrates five years of amazing talent. To expand the talent search, FCVB is working with Leadership Franklin County to add four open mic performances. The winner of each open mic is guaranteed a slot in the Round One performance, onstage at the Capitol Theatre in June 2019.

Last year's winner, Alexus Lawson, 12, of Chambersburg, said she had a great experience during the competition and it has helped her learn confidence and to believe in herself.
"It has helped encourage me and I am now doing voice lessons," Lawson said. She said other competitors have inspired her as well.

"I've learned to believe in myself," she said.

Recently, Lawson performed at the 11/30 Visitors Center's Grand Opening event Franklin County: 300 Years of American History featuring 1864: The Burning & Rebirth of Chambersburg.

Elly Cooke, Gettysburg, was the winner of A Cappella & Unplugged competition in 2017. Since then, the 20-year-old singer, songwriter has graduated from high school and is now performing music full-time.

"I am out there promoting my shows but I also teach beginner guitar lessons for homeschool students," Cooke said. "It's nice because I'm able to still do music." Read this here.

Cooke has won several talent competitions in the tri-state area and performs locally at wineries, fairs and festivals.

"I got to open for the country singer William Michael Morgan at the 4H Faire," Cooke said. She also performed for Froggy 107.7 at the York Fair.

Her event schedule is kept up-to-date on her Facebook page Elly Cooke Music. Music has become a family affair for Elly as well as her brother Drew, who plays guitar, has joined his sister in musical performances.

The experience with A Cappella & Unplugged made connections for her, she said, and is planning for the future.

"Right now, I'm working on a lot of songwriting and eventually I'll be able to get a few things recorded, in addition to my shows this year," Cooke said.

Other winners have included "A World Apart" with Taylor Piper and Kristopher Potter of Mercersburg in 2015 and Kate & Isaac, a duo from Waynesboro in 2016.

Open mic performances are just one way to participate in A Cappella & Unplugged. Auditions are also held in May. Up to 20 acts are invited to Round One at the Capitol Theatre in June. A panel of judges selects the top six acts to move into the Semi-Finals. Then, the public is invited to view videos of the six performers on Facebook.com/FCVBen and "like" the favorite performance. The three acts with the most "likes" move onto the Final Round at 1864 Burning of Chambersburg on July 20, 2019, where one act wins the $500 grand prize.

Washington Olivetto (McCann Europe) is president of the jury

Besides the legendary Olivetto, some of the best names in the world of advertising joined Lürzer's Grand Slam jury: JULIANA PARACENCIO (Memac Ogilvy Dubai), STEFAN GESCHKE (Grabarz & Partner), CRAIG MCINTOSH (Cossette, Canada), ADRIAN BOTAN (McCann Worldgroup), TIM HAWKEY (Area 23), RÉMI LASCAULT (La Chose), TOLGA BÜYÜKDOGANAY, JULIA ULMER (Jung von Matt), RAFAEL GIL (Y&R Brazil), GIAN CARLO LANFRANCO (L&C New York-Lima), BEN GOUGH (Above+Beyond), NICHOLAS CAPANEAR (GSW New York), ANTONIO BECHTLE (Bechtle & Milzarajs).

About Lürzer's Archive:
Lürzer's Archive (http://www.luerzersarchive.com), the celebrated creative resource for advertising professionals worldwide, has been offering a full set of inspirational tools since 1984: Lürzer's Archive magazine, Lürzer's Archive 200 Best Specials, the Lürzer's Archive website and a wide range of apps. It was back in the early 1980s that advertising copywriter and agency owner Walter Lürzer banged his fist down on the table and resolutely shouted out to himself: "If no one's going to do it for me, I'm going to have to do it myself - for everyone!" What he was referring to, back in that dark pre-internet era, was the laborious process of hunting out and compiling advertising campaigns from around the world. In those days, there were not many ways of finding out how products and services were being advertised in, say, America, Asia, or individual European countries. The first issue of Lürzer's Archive magazine was published October 1984 in Frankfurt am Main (Germany) and today the title has over 150,000 readers worldwide.

The website of Lürzer's Archive puts the focus firmly on our principle of "curatorship of inspiration." Boasting striking graphics, the chance to view all new agency submissions, and online features designed to both inform and inspire, the website complements the prestigious magazine, which presents the most interesting new print campaigns, TV commercials and, more recently, digital designs from all over the world. Daily features on Audiovisual, Campaigns, Digital and Who's Who in the ad world, plus a weekly blog from Publisher and Editor-in-Chief Michael Weinzettl, complete the package.

Real Estate News: HGTV’s 2018 Dream Home Winner Is For Sale

"HGTV's 2018 Dream Home"

Millions watched to see if theirs would be the winning entry after filling them out every day for several months to see if they were the winner of the 2018 HGTV Dream Home. There were over 123 million entries to win the grand prize package. And yes, there was a lucky winner, but because many times it's impossible for a winner to pick up and move to a different part of the country, the fabulous house, with all of its designer contents, has been put on the market at $1.9 million.

In one of the most scenic spots in the country, Gig Harbor, Washington, HGTV's senior property hunter found an existing 1974 home on a cliff above the water's edge with a spectacular view of Henderson Bay and its colorful sunsets. In addition to a sound house, there was a concrete bulkhead that would make a great waterside lounge area and steps going down to the water for water recreation.

Steeped in modern rusticity from its textured-stone car park to its dark-brown siding and dramatically pitched steel roof, the house blends naturally into its earthy, woodsy surroundings. At 3,591 square feet, the home takes full advantage of the water views through its wraparound two-story vaulted glass wall. Consisting of four bedrooms and three baths, there is plenty of space for family and friends alike. The main level is open and spacious with views from the living room, kitchen and dining area with an additional accent feature of a centrally placed wrought-iron railing surrounding a staircase between kitchen and dining descending to the lower level. The kitchen is composed of a large island for food prep and casual dining and furnished with high-end appliances. The main level also includes the master suite with sitting area and water views with eye-catching attached bath, vaulted ceilings and custom walk-in closet. There is a second master suite on the main level with bath and walk-in closet. The lower level has two more bedrooms, a hall bath, separate areas for entertaining, a media area, a wet bar area with wine cooler - all leading out to the rear covered sitting area, outdoor kitchen and waterfront.

Gig Harbor is well known for its picturesque historic waterfront, boutiques and fine dining, less than 20 minutes to Tacoma and an hour to Seattle. The home's listing agent is Michael Morrison at Morrison House Sotheby's International Realty, Gig Harbor, Washington.
