The Folksong SIG
The Folksong SIG will be meeting via Zoom during the COVID-19 shutdown. The default meeting dates will be the second and fourth Sundays of the month from 1:00-3:00 PM.

If you wish to participate, please email Alan Stillson at astillson@sbcglobal.net for details.

San Fernando Valley Party
San Fernando Valley Party. The San Fernando Valley party has resumed.

I will post the Zoom link on Mensa Connect the weekend before the party. If you don't get it email me at janabickel@earthlink.net.
