The Lake County Folk Club will host their monthly Song Circle beginning at 6:30 pm.

Come out to play or just listen. Members and non-members are always welcome. One of their friendly hosts will keep the ball rolling. 

This is a casual, no pressure opportunity to kick back, play some music and meet others. The participants form a circle, and each one in turn can choose to play a song or politely pass. It’s a chance to lead songs or to join in with others. They keep moving around the circle until it’s time to call it a night.
