Susan suggested that I post this here as well. Thank you Susan.

Greetings All,

Well it is that time of the year and my wife and I are again hosting an evening of traditional Irish music on Saturday, July 30th at our community in the mountains in Pennsylvania. As we did last year we will host a barbeque at 5 PM in the afternoon followed by a session in the evening at 7 PM. Our community is located just north east of Wilkes-Barre.

We've once again extended an invitation to the public to join us at the session. We've asked the public to bring with them a local food market gift card in whatever denomination they feel comfortable with as a donation. We do not expect the participating musicians to contribute anything other than their talent and passion. We will then distribute the gift cards donated to area families that are struggling through difficult economic times.

This year's event will be announced on the local public radio station, WVIA FM, so we are very excited about the prospects for an even greater turnout than last year. I have extended an invitation to the local Irish musicians through Leo Schott, a fine piper from the area. Leo joined us last year and the hopes are that he can do the same this year.

If you would like to join us please call (201) 424-6141 or email me at ed@ejsantiques.com and indicate how many will be coming. We need to know about how many musicians are coming so that we know how much food to lay in for the barbeque. Please let us know as soon as possible.

We both truly hope you can join us in this endeavor to spread Peace, Love, and Compassion through the music we all so dearly love.

Peace,
Ed
