A letter from Gretchen to the Gypsy, Jazz and Django Night attendees

A letter from Gretchen to the Gypsy, Jazz and Django Night attendees: Hello to all you fine players who have come to participate joyfully in our twice a month Gypsy, Jazz, and Django Night.

Clogging at the MHC

I am afraid that Miss Marcia is really swamped with work right now and is unable to start a new clogging series right now, and that she might ask around to find someone that could. Right now we would like someone on Thurs 6:30-7:30 for a few weeks series, but it could be another day and time. It could even be a shared position, and teach beginner, near beginner, and intermediate, also at the kids camp which will be the first two weeks of June. One week ages 4-8 and another week ages 9-12. Mayb… Continue

Irish Session

We had a great Irish session with a bunch of new comers last night. I was trying to get some input from them. Some new pickers that came were Francis Cunningham, Jennifer Halenar, Banjo Tom Saffell, Tom Morley. Tom from the band "Mithril" brought with him family and friends...We like having those spectators, they made it fun for the musicians! There are several advanced players that want the Irish session to be weekly. One idea is Mon nights could be when we might have it. With the new "Rowdy R… Continue
