HYANNIS SESSION CHANGES
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Due to World Cup, vacations, family events, etc. i'm making some changes in the Cats session schedule for the next month.
Two definite cancellations are July 4th and July 25th.
I'm waiting on confirmation from a couple of alternate venues but for
the time being the operative word is "No sessions at the Triangle until August 1st".
I might even add a Canalside session at some point (had them a few years back, always enjoyable).
I'll email the final schedule to the Cats mailing list but if you aren't on it, keep checking this page for updates!
SOUTH COAST ACTIVITIES

There's so much going on in the South Coast area that I've decided to provide a
link to the happenings. Click on "South Coast Activities" above and wait for the magic to start!
Thanks to Colin Everett and his "fellow musicians" for doing such a
great job of putting together a vibrant trad scene in the area between
the Cape and Providence.
IRISH CULTURAL CENTER
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
The ICC in Canton is offering some very nice traditional programs - if you're interested you might want to check their website.
They also have the Friday evening session that's been running for a good
number of years (I ran it for a few years quite a while back). It's an
open session and John, Eamonn, and co. are very welcoming, so check it
out if you need some tunes on a Friday.
