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'!

July, 2014 Meeting Report
It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon and 4 of us played a round of club tunes. There is always something to learn about playing with a group; practicing chords, melody and harmonies etc. We would love to see more participation as we approach the fall; whether changing the time of day (Would morning be better?) or day of week, etc. Please let us know if there is an idea that you have to make this a better club.

This month we will just have a good old jam. A couple of us are going to Dulcimer camp and will try to bring back some tidbits for all! Looking forward to just some plain old strummin!
