AZ: Yuma Jam

Post by Hap Young »

Well its time to anounce the 3rd Yuma jam.It will be taking place the 20 of January here at the beautiful desert lakes clubhouse. We expect to have some GREAT pickers here. I think Fred Justice Frank Carter,Chuck Back,just to name a few. This year we will have A potluck lunch. Bud Isaacs will probably be in the area. If your going to the Mesa show you might as well stop by and do some picking on the way there. WE are having it on a sunday so all the sat night pickers can come. Jim Barron , email me and let me know if you can bring the Band in the box.

Hap,

I would really like to make the jam, but I'm not going to make any plans.

I was really dissapointed about not getting to make the Car Port jam at Rays this year. Planned on it for 2 months, then at the last minute had to work! [gotta keep the clients equipment running if I want to eat!] :\

If it works out that I can, I'll try to be there!

I know there's gonna be lots of good pickin and grinnin! :D

Ray. Glad to hear that you and Dixie are comming. Larry Cummings said he will be here too. I just heard from Big Jim. He said things look good for him too. Hey folks , this is shaping up to be a good one. My buddie Jonathan says that he is ready to give us all a lesson.

Boys, I am so sorry to have to report to you that I won't be able to come down for the jam. We have been slammed with case orders lately, and that's a good thing. But I'm still working on building up my stock for the Phoenix Show, sorry guys. :cry:
And of course that means that Ray and Dixie Jenkins won't make it either, since I was thier ride down there. Give my share of the FOOD to Frank Carter, God knows he needs it. :lol: See you at the show.
