(MAP) Our ongoing "B2B" ukulele classes for intermediate-skill lessons are on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of every month from 12:00 noon to 2:00pm. In months with 5 Mondays, we give lessons for total beginners on the 5th Monday. The 2nd and 4th Mondays from noon to 2pm, and the 2nd Saturdays of each month from 1:15pm to 3:15pm, are sing-and-play-along meetings for anyone. A fee of $2/meeting for Active Seniors members, or $4 for non-members, is collected to help support the facility, not to support the club which is run by unpaid volunteers. Please bring exact cash. Membership dues for 2023 in Active Seniors are $30 per calendar year. Mid-year dues for new membership are prorated. All ages are welcome to join the club. If you have a ukulele, bring it. If not, we have loaners. Don't rush to buy one until you come to a meeting to learn what to look for when you buy a ukulele.
