December, 2014 Meeting Report

Happy Holidays to All

We had a very good turn out for our Christmas sing along at the Willows. There were a lucky 13 players and a very full audience. Thanks go out to Walter and Barbara Roberts for organizing the event and printing up the program with a special thanks to BJ for phoning and emailing to keep us on track. Walter, Barbara, BJ and Cindy did a fantastic job with background information on the tunes.We now know where Jingle Bells originated as well as how to play a dreidel game. It was a fun day for the players as well as the singers. We are hoping to keep this momentum going into the new year . Our first practice will be at the Willows at 11:00 on Wednesday, January 7th. Come with some ideas of tunes you would like to have the group play.

Wishing you all the best in 2015, Happy New Year
