It’s been a quiet month in Lake Eve-O-begone. We did not hold an October Evening of Music because the date conflicted with Getaway.

We’ve rescheduled the November Eve O’ to the 16th, to avoid a conflict with NERFA. (BTW, very nice Project presence at NERFA). It will be held at Marie and Jay’s Western Outpost, and we hope to capture some pent-up energy from October.

Pamela and Yolanda have graciously volunteered to host our December Eve O/holiday party. I’m sure that it will be a beautiful event.

I’ve been looking into ways to use the grant given by the Board to Event Hosting. My initial thought was, and remains, to have an instrumental ringer at an Eve O’, to supplement our own accompanists. Both of the people I have in mind were receptive to the idea but unavailable on November 16, and Pamela and Yolanda don’t think that a ringer would be compatible with their plans. So, I hope to schedule a ringer early next year. In the meantime, I’m open to suggestions for use of the grant.

Also, we need a host for the January Eve O’. I’m hoping (and hinting) that a current or former Board member will step up to the plate.

Submitted in the spirit of the Project,

Jay Wilensky,

Event Hosting Chair
