A friend of mine who lives in Reno would like to find a session somewhere in the vicinity. I was hoping that, perhaps, someone here might know something about the matter. She would prefer an Irish session, but if one is not available, it is not necessary that it be Irish.

Thank you all ever so much for your help. :)
