October Surprise….Not!

Oct 18, 2020 | Welcome Column

All,

By now you will know the results of the election …not that one, the CBA election of course. And with it I hope you attended our annual members meeting. Our membership has declined this year in large part because we were not able to get together in Grass Valley and make it easy for you to join. We would love to see our active membership break the magical 3,000 mark but the curve is going in the wrong direction for that. So shameless plug…if you love Bluegrass, jamming, and our community, join!

As important, what does my crystal ball say about the 2021 Father’s Day Festival and the other CBA events that we all love and miss? The crystal ball is a little hazy because we don’t yet know how the corona virus vaccine is going to play out, but what I can share with you is that we are planning several events. We are making plans for contingencies from a possible live FDF to an online FDF, to something in between. Pay close attention to our Facebook feed and email blasts because all of you will be the first to know. I don’t yet know about a 2021 Spring campout, but I have high hopes that we could have an in person Fall campout and annual members meeting in 2021.

As always, be safe, be careful, be well….and wear your damn mask.
