“I’m going to make the rest of my life be the best of my life. No regrets.” That’s Jackie Meyer’s mantra. To help fulfill that promise to herself, Jackie has joined this year’s group of local “celebrities” in the Dancing with the Stars showcase at the 2014 Redlands Symphony Gala.
“I’ve been surrounded with music all my life,” says Jackie, “My husband, John, and my dad, Hank Barto, are both musicians. What better way to honor them and the music community than to support the Redlands Symphony and help keep music alive in our community?”
