"Bluegrass Ramble" Some Bluegrass Stuff Happening in December

Hey Folks.  I've been rather lax with my blog lately, but that is what I like about it.  I can be as active or as inactive as I please, 'cause it's my blog!.

Annual Christmas Party @ Amelia Family Campgrounds, December 5th, 2009

Yep, this is the annual get together sponsored by the Amelia Family Campground and The Central Virginia Family Bluegrass Music Festival.  It always occurs on the 1st Saturday of December each year.  Last year we had snow flurries and predictions are for another round of flurries again this year.  So, be sure to bundle up nice and warm.  As usual the pavilion will be wrapped in Tyvek and two big propane heaters will keep everyone snug & warm.  There'll be nearly 20 bands with the first band getting started at 2:00PM and changing each 1/2 hour until finally they have all played.  If you want a seat be sure to bring your lawn chair and get there EARLY.  Supper of potato soup and hushpuppys will be served free of charge.  Bring along your favorite dessert to share with everyone.  See you there!

VFMA Jam Session, December 15th, Tuesday - Annual Food Drive to aid The Virginia Food Bank, 4 bands 7 - 10PM

The VFMA still has their regular monthly jam on 3rd Tuesdays at Brandermill Church with the December jam to occur on December 15th.  This is a very special event this year as along with the regular jamming, four bands will be in attendance to entertain. Cookies & coffee will be served. The schedule is "Homeward Bound" at 7PM; "Borrowed Time" at 7;45PM with a short break at 8:30Pm followed by "Easy Street" at 8:45PM and the "Brandermill Jammers" at 9:30PM.   Be sure to bring non-perishable food items with you that night.  The Virginia Food Bank is in most need of Peanut Butter, Canned Fruit & Vegetables, Hot & Cold Cereals, Pasta, Rice, Canned Fish/Meats.  Make your Christmas the best ever by helping your fellow man.

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR!
