Winger’s Crescent Park Entertainers were a "hillbilly" band from the Fort Erie area. Members were Red Tubbs, Howard Brandel, Ernie Clare, George Marshall, Millie Downs and Garnet Jansen. The nominal leader was "blacksmith" Sam Anger. Their name came from Ward A. Winger, and a housing subdivision he built in the 1920s. Crescent Park still extends from Highway 3 to Lake Erie east of Ridgeway. Winger’s Crescent Park Entertainers crossed the bridge to Buffalo, New York, every Friday to play on the radio station WGR. Their show was called The Village Blacksmith Shop. It always opened with the ringing of Sam Anger’s anvil. They played fiddle, guitar, hammered dulcimer and piano. In addition to the music, their shows included square dance calling and comedy skits.
