Micheal Bacigalupo, Executive Director said, "Dennis Gwizdala has brought an a show to the State Theatre that not only helps people get through the Christmas Season but he has helped hundreds of families have a better holiday"

According to Bacigalupo, The 7th annual Season of Giving Toys for Tots Concert has already been scheduled and will be held on December 6, 2012

Dennis Gwizdala has been singing and playing professionally since practically a child. Born into a musical family, Dennis started singing and playing professionally as a clarinetist and saxophonist in the secular world at the age of 14.

For almost 20 years, he would play at various events throughout the Midwest. He had recorded an album and was driving force in the group and music he was dedicated to. Dennis' secular music was #1 on his list of priorities in his life.

Gwizdala is referred to by many as one of the premier instrumentalists in the music industry, Nashville recording artist and song writer still keeps his roots in Bay City, Michigan. Gwizdala's desire this time of the year is to remind everyone of the true meaning of Christmas and that every child would have a toy to open up on Christmas morning!


The Audience was full and of all ages
