Guitar Club
If Santa brought you a new guitar for Christmas, come
check us out! We are returning this month, but with a little
"makeover." We will be meeting the first and third Fridays
(with the exception in January, due to New Year's Eve falling
on the first Friday). Mark your calendars for January's
meetings: they will be on the 9th and 23rd.
We are going to focus the first Friday's as having some
dedicated time for "Improving the Guitar." Jerry Hawkins,
our bass player will be providing some useful instruction on
the following: The first session will be aimed at introducing
the player to the instrument. "What is the neck? How are
the strings laid out? What about tuning, note positions and
introduction to chord structure and scales?" Much of this
stuff you probably already know, you just haven't realized it.
There will be diagrams supplied to refer to, so you don't have
to spend time memorizing. Memorization comes through
the fun part: playing! Time spent on the lesson should be
less than 30 minutes.
The third Friday will be focused on "improving your
performance." Please contact Cynthia Ellingworth at
cynthia0430@verizon.net or 619-672-6777 if you are
interested in joining the Guitar Club.
The Red Hot Seasons meets the fourth Monday of the
month. Our next meeting is Jan. 26, at 2 pm in the Ballroom.
New members are always welcome. Our organization has
only one rule – NO rules! Come visit us to see what it is
all about. This is the most important meeting of the year
as we will be taking suggestions and organizing for 2015
events!
A big thank you to Lucille4 Gould for arranging our
annual Christmas luncheon at La Bella Vita in Temecula.
There were 45 members in attendance and everyone had a
great time. The food was terrific. Thanks Lucille!
