*The group will meet at MAXgallery for strums this Fall/Winter. Each player is asked to contribute $25.00 to cover September through December. Please give the $ to Mollie (cash or Venmo deposit @Mollie-Fein)
*A thought for newer players. As you print out songs we are practicing, keep them organized alphabetically in a notebook. I find it convenient to have a separate section for children's songs and one for holiday songs.
