Vargas wins her way into Hotel California on Saturday, Sept. 3

Vargas wins her way into Hotel California on Saturday, Sept. 3

Celenia Vargas and Liset Guzman hold the magic tickets Vargas won for a peaceful easy evening of Hotel California, A Salute to the Eagles here in The Dalles on Saturday, Sept. 3 at the Lewis & Clark Festival Park. Tickets for the concert, starting at $15, are still available.

105 locals entered to win four tickets to the CCCNews’ Hotel California, A Salute to the Eagles, who are set to hit the stage on Saturday, Sept. 3 at Lewis & Clark Festival Park. 

While there could only be one winner, there’s still tickets left at pretty reasonable prices - starting at $15 for adults and $10 for kids, to attend the show. Buy Tickets here.

TD’s own Nolan Hare is bringing this astounding group of musicians to The Dalles with the support of multiple local businesses. Check out our original story here.  

Back on August 16, CCCNews started the contest and people could enter merely by selecting their favorite Eagles songs. 

Our winner chose the following songs: Desperado, Hotel California, Life in the Fast Lane and Tequila Sunrise.

Hey, what about The Long Run? And Take it Easy? And Peaceful Easy Feeling? - That’s the thing with the Eagles catalog of music - it never disappoints with it’s ability to dive into rock, blues, country and folk.

Now, let’s dive into that winner. TD’s own Celenia Vargas is our winner. 

“I never win anything,” she said on Tuesday. “I was driving to get tacos at Mi Pueblito during lunch when you called and I did not even need the tacos after you told me I won.”

Vargas, who is the attendance secretary at Chenowith Elementary said she immediately called Liset Guzman who works at Columbia Gorge Toyota and immediately invited her to join her at the show. 

Both have three children and the free tickets are going to provide an awesome break. 

And who else are they taking?

Their husbands, of course, Anselmo Hernandez and Rudy Guzman.

It takes a village to bring this kind of talent and performance to The Dalles and Mid-Columbia.
