October, 2014 Meeting Report
October blew in with two returning members and our nice steady group. We returned to many of our older favorite tunes; Old Joe, June Apple.... We actually enjoyed singing along to a few of them. "Yesterday's Treasures" really caught our attention with the beautiful words, and we'll be revisiting this tune often. Thanks to all who joined us this month and hope to see more of you in Nov.

October, 2014 Meeting Announcement
Our next scheduled monthly meeting is on October 11, 2014.
Our monthly meetings are held the second Saturday afternoon of the month at the Bellingham Unitarian Fellowship, 1207 Ellsworth St. from 1:30-3:30, and occasionally we extend for snacks and social time. We are on the second floor, there is an elevator and the building is handicap accessible. All players, both beginners and experienced, are welcome to join in. The first half of the meeting is spent reviewing recently learned tunes, then learning a new tune. The second half of the meeting is "Song Circle", so please come with some tunes in mind. There is a list of our practiced songs further on this site. Let's make the mountain dulcimer a vibrant part of our community.

September, 2014 BDC Meeting Report
Perhaps because of the beautiful weather on Saturday, only two (2) Club members, in addition to Bj Morgan and myself, made it to this meeting of the Bellingham Dulcimer Club. Too bad as lots of historical information about the Appalachian mountain dulcimer was provided, and several toe-tapping tunes were shared. Later . . .

More Regarding September, 2014 BDC Meeting
Actually, B.J. Morton and I will be co-hosting this next Club meeting. Since I have not attended since April, BJ's assistance is essential - and very much appreciated! In the hope that many players will attend this meeting, please be advised that I reserve the right to "change up" what we might share at the meeting. Until 9/13, later . . . Clay

August, 2014 Meeting Report
There were 6 brave souls who came out this month. We practiced some finger placements with running up and down the scale to warm up. We did attempt to get a little more practice with Nutfactory Shuffle and maybe ready to put it altogether next month. Then, we had a nice time of playing some familiar tunes. Until next month, keep strummin'!
