Thanks to everyone who came out to the jam! Great turnout!

We played several from the World Fiddle Day packet, and a few more from the other packet (under Resources > Sheet Music), and there were several new tunes:

• Boys of Bluehill (in the Kingston Session tunebook)
• Off to California (in the Kingston Session tunebook)
• March of St. Timothy (The Session)
• Poor Girl Waltz (link)
• Darling Nellie Gray (The Session)
• Shove That Pig’s Foot a Little Closer to the Fire (The Session)
• Spootiskerry (The Session)
• Unfortunately not enough of us knew June Apple (The Session) but maybe we can polish it up for next time.

Our Workshop tune was Life on the Ocean Wave (aka Lady do-si-do, or First Two Ladies Cross Over). Sheet music for that is here.

Next Jam will be August 13th, 2-4, at the Potsdam Public Library.

Join us for some tunes at the Potsdam Public Library at 2:00 on Sunday, June 25th! We will try something new and have a workshop tune at the beginning, followed by a few familiar jam favorites from the World Fiddle Day list, and then some round robin at a quicker pace.

What a fantastic celebration of World Fiddle Day! We had over 120 attendees filling the Potsdam Public Library with beautiful music! Thanks to Gretchen Koehler for putting this all together and making it such a great success!
