Weather forecasts cause us to cancel the event scheduled for January 2, 2014…please visit us on January 9, 2014.
Our apologies for the late change in the schedule, but safety is a concern as hazardous driving conditions are predicted.
THEME: Lyrics. Some songs are poetry (when you can make out the words)…tonight we ask that you find a song or two. Bring and sing a song or present the lyrics as a poetic work.
