Join us on Thursday 19th August 2021 for a 3 Chord Thursday thematic song session of songs about members in the family: mama, papa, brother, sister, baby, etc). By invitation, we are delighted to welcome Bruce Cooke (Michigan) to host this session. Thereafter we have one more session on 26th August about FRIENDS before we break for September.
Did you know each Tuesday and Thursday at 9 am EDT, you are welcome to a 45 minute workout in Zoom led by a ukulele player for other ukulele players? Jen Bross, a certified personal trainer and ukulele enthusiast, leads us in stand up or sit-down exercises. First session is free, thereafter just $5. E-mail Jen to get & sign the waiver; and get the Zoom link. It’s great fun! Sometimes she chooses songs according to our 3 Chord Thursday theme.
Welcome wherever you are!
