Pictures! (coming soon)

Holy sparklers, Batman, it has been an insane week! Last Tuesday's jam session was held on the third floor of St. Marks downtown, and, I hafta say it was a ton of fun. We even had a trombone player and a saxophonist!

<unfortunately, my computer isn't letting me post pics. I will add them to this post tomorrow, though>

Join us this Tuesday, July 5th, for our first jam at the new place: 1400 N Flores. As always, jams run from 7pm or so until the musicians leave.

I really want to thank all those who helped us move:
Rose has been a packing, organizing and cleaning MACHINE this past week,
Glenn, who joined us just days before the move, was tireless in all the hard heavy labor,
Paul too, and he let us use his pick-up truck!
Special thanks also to Wayland, Jack, Charley, Robert Griffith, William Griffith, and Rick Tanner for their help. This was, without a doubt, a community effort. You guys ROCK!

<I do have pics of the move, and of the new space; but those will have to wait til I can get to a better computer>

Don't forget:
July 19th we'll be having a special Grand Re-Opening ceremony and jam session! There will be a ribbon cutting, speeches, music and fun! Join us 6pm at the new space!

Ps: I'm sorry if I've left anyone off the thank you list. I'm tired and it's a holiday. If you feel slighted, tell me and I'll fix it, or you can just leave  a scathing voice-mail on someone else's phone.

WE MOVED!!!!!!

I have been questioning whether Treys House can stand on its own or not.  Our funding is almost gone, our needs are great.  Then 100 degree weather hit early, and we shut down for most of May and all of June.  Shut down with the exception of members who insisted we be available.

They would come in, knowing we couldn't get the temp inside Treys House under 95 degrees, and they would stay as long as they could, then go home with heat headaches.

When we found the new space, and the AC and (I assume) the heat works, our members jumped for joy!  We have to stay open.  So many depend upon us to be there.  We are their community, and they are ours!

So now we look to the future.  The space is coming together, and the members are in already...without an easy place to sit, without the comfort of an easy program.  They show up and ask the same question..."what can I do to help."

We will survive!
