'If you can play any kind of musical instrument'

You are more than welcome to bring your guitar, banjo, squeeze-box, piano, or pipe organ down to the city park on Howard Boulevard on any Friday night From 7 to 9-ish to join in the fun. Your cheery voice is equally welcome. No Admission, No Cover, No Problem... Soft drinks and snacks are available. Bring your own lawn chair.

If you don't have an instrumant, or you can't carry a tune in a bucket, or you forgot the bucket, you are still urged to come down and encourage these musicians to keep on keepin-on. The first friday of every month at 5:30 is a covered dish supper.
