Hey Ukesters,
Wow! What a great group we had at rehearsal last Thursday! So happy to see all of you together, making music and having fun! Welcome to another newbie, Judy!
SHIRTS
The Ukesters funds are buying a new short-sleeve shirt for each of us. Johnny recommends that we choose a color that also comes in a long sleeve, so that those who want to can order a second shirt in the same color in long sleeve.
With his suggestion in mind, please look at the shirt color choices and send me the exact name (ex. Indigo blue, Forest green) of your first and second choices of short sleeve colors that also have a long sleeve counterpart. If you wish, you will have an opportunity to purchase a second shirt once the color choice has been decided upon. If you didn’t send me your shirt size or give it to Betty at rehearsal, please email me your shirt size by Tuesday, 9/9.
- This web address will show you short sleeve color choices for Gildan G500 | Adult Heavy Cotton T-Shirt
https://www.shirtmax.com/t-shirts/gildan/g500-heavy-cotton-5-3-oz-t-shirt.html?color=14 - This web address will show you long sleeve color choices for Gildan G540 Adult Heavy Cotton™ Long Sleeve T-Shirt https://www.shirtmax.com/t-shirts/gildan/g540-heavy-cotton-5-3-oz-long-sleeve-t-shirt.html?color=3
When you click on a color, it will give you the exact name and also turn the picture to the color you choose. I will tally the results of the color choice “votes” in the next few days. We will finish the discussion of shirts at next week’s rehearsal on 9-11.
Parking at the library
With our expanding group comes the issue of parking spaces at the library. If you are able to walk a longer distance, please park either on the street to the west of the library, in the top parking lot, or on the opposite side of the museum. Please do not park at the museum on the library side as that is their main entrance with limited parking for their patrons.
Albertville Farmers Market
Saturday, September 13
Please arrive between 8:15-8:30 to set up, possibly take a pic before or maybe during a break, and be ready to play at 9 am. They will provide chairs.
Please label everything with your name and/or phone number in the event you should leave something behind.
Please put your music in alphabetical order so that you can find songs quickly.
We’ll do three 20 minutes sets with open mic opportunities and water breaks in between. The playlist will be called, based on the crowd at the moment. If you’re missing a title, please get one from the “extras” books Thursday.
This event would be a great opportunity to experience doing an “open mic.” The Ukesters group will always be your most supportive cheerleaders!
Please have these titles in your notebook or on your device for rehearsal this Thursday (9-11) and the Farmers Market on September 13.
