Around The Grange
Granby Grange to host Country Dance & Jam Session Jan. 25th
 

By Granby / East Granby Patch (1/16/13)

  JANUARY 21, 2013 --

Reserve Friday, January 25, 2013 from 7:00 till 10:00 PM, for a Country Dance and Jam Session at Granby Grange Hall, 212 North Granby Road (CT Rt. 189, North), North Granby, CT (Across from North Congregational Church).  Preferred parking is across the street in the commuter parking lot.

Come Jam or dance with us but plan to have fun.  The Community is invited to come and approve the jammers. We will provide the “gong” to end the performance of any jammer the crowd doesn’t like using AYE or NAY votes in a hat at that performer’s feet.  More than one NAY vote ends that performers stint on the stage and the next one takes over.

It will be an Open Mike Jam Session, and dance callers are welcome, too.  All ages and all levels of skill invited for both dancers and musicians.  Attire is casual but comfortable. Handicapped accessibility is limited at this time, but we hope to add a lift and ramps in the near future.

First eight musicians start first.  Play as you wish and if the crowd pleases and you can perform for over 1 hour, you will win $10.00 per hour.   A special prize is to be awarded at the end for the longest lasting performer(s).

Breaks scheduled for every half hour.  Light Refreshments and Alcohol-free beverages will be available for sale downstairs.  These sales benefit our kitchen improvement program.

Admission $10.00 per couple, $6.00 per single

Bring any money you would have spent Friday night onalcoholic beverages if you are a drinker, or would have spent before becoming sober if you are an AA member and put it in our Jam Jar, to be donated to The Connecticut Children’s Hospital in Hartford..

The first Jam program on Friday, December 28, 2012 raised $214.00 for the children’s ward at Danbury Hospital, with all of the musicians having e-donated their “prizes” to this cause.  A very warm thank you to all who made the December 28, 2012 event a success.

WANTED:  MUSICIANS, DANCERS and FRIENDS
