What have we been up to?
I'm so glad you asked.
Last week we attended the County Commissioner meeting as the proclamation was signed that June 21st is Make Music Day in Clatsop County. We also were on ARTS! Live and Local with the always delightful Carol Newman to chat about the offerings in Astoria and Seaside for all ages to listen or participate in next Sunday.

Thank you Clatsop County and KMUN for such warm welcomes as always.
Now the count down is truly on - all performances are finalized on the 18th and music kicks off at 12 noon on the 21st!

Will we see you in Astoria or Seaside?
