April, 2013 Bellingham Dulcimer Club Meeting Report
Wow, it must have been the cold AM weather - even some snow - that contributed to awesome meeting attendance today. Twelve players, including first-timers from Canada and from south Bellingham and one left-handed guy who played "backwards", joined in the fun. During the Song Circle, many great tunes were "called" and a couple of "new-to-the-group" tunes - "Jamaica" and "Eleanor Rigby" were shared. And it looks like several of the folks who showed up today are more than willing and capable of keeping the Bellingham Dulcimer Club growing. Later . . .

As with previous meetings, new and new players are encouraged to arrive at 1:30PM. Everyone else should join us starting at 2PM. At 2PM, a discussion of the future of our Club will include an exchange of ideas aimed at sharing the responsibility of planning and leading meetings starting next month.
