[Santa Cruz Celtic Slow Sessions] 2nd Sunday Session Invitation -Slow - December 10 - at The Buttery

[Janet Platin]

Do you think we could play on New Year's Eve 3-5 instead? I will ask if we can get enough people saying they will come.
Please let me know. I leave Thursday, but will be back on the 28th.
