Our goals:
The Pluckin’ Strummers is about having fun, sharing our love of music
and growing our skills. We are a teaching club, a welcome place for
beginners and home to players of all skill levels.
First meeting is FREE – $10.00 donation suggested per meeting thereafter.
You can attend without owning or having picked up a musical instrument.
We have a few loaner ukuleles available if you don’t yet have your own.
—————————————————-
Meetings will be divided into sections:
Beginners:
We will start off every meeting with a beginners lesson.
Song Playing:
We will bring in songs to play as a group and welcome others to share songs.
Again, all skill levels welcome!
Playing Song Arrangements:
In addition to the songs above, we will introduce one or two songs every
few months that we will work into parts. These songs will be focused on
in detail for performance level or recording.

The Small Print:
We are starting this club to have FUN! And that means:
No politics, no attitudes, no egos allowed.
All members are encouraged to contribute to the goals of the club.
Policies and procedures will be changed and improved as needed.
We value your input:
Being this is a brand new club, we are open to idea’s and suggestions.
If you have been involved in a musical group of some kind and wish to
share what worked and what hasn’t for you, please email us at
pluckinstrummers@gmail.com – put ‘Club Suggestions’ as the subject
so it will get read.

I am so excited! This is really happening! I’ve dreamed of this for a long time.
None of this would be possible without the tremendous efforts of one splendid person. She’s the “A” in “T&A Ukulele”.
Thank you so much Alisa.
