Norton Park Concert CANCELLED

from Kathie:

The concert has been cancelled due to the weather ( wet, more rain on its way and the frigid temps) and most likely wouldn't get much of an audience.
 It has been suggested we have a get together at Central Cafe tonight at 6:30. Please let me know if you would be going. (good opportunity to drop off your music and folder if you are not going to Lake George!)

The next rehearsal on Tuesday, June 16th, 7pm at Plainville High School for the Lake George Festival.  -k-
