Ukulele for Beginners.
After the preliminary meeting on Monday 4th November, it was agreed that the ukulele group would meet weekly at The Kensington House Social Club, Station Road, Maghull. The meeting will be from 13:00 to 15:00 pm. So far we are 14 strong, and that is about the right number for a beginners group, so unfortunately we are full for now. However if there are at least 10 more people who want to start ukulele, then a second beginners group could be formed. This would be on a Wednesday afternoon, venue to be finalized, at about the same time. Anyone who showed an interest previously and didn’t make the opening meet at St Andrews Church hall, should contact the leader, Mike, in the next two weeks, to register further interest in a Wednesday group.
Due to unforeseen circumstances our next meetings in November and December are cancelled We would not have had a meeting in January as the first Wednesday will be on New Year’s Day so our next meeting will be on Wednesday 5th February.

Christmas 2019
A reminder that we looking for a volunteer or volunteers to organise this years’ carol concert after David Kearney very kindly led on our very enjoyable morning last year. If you are willing to take this forward or help, working with others, can you let myself or another Committee member know by 30th September – we can share with you what has happened previously which should be helpful. We are hoping a concert can be held on Tuesday 10th December which will be our final meeting of 2019.
