 Seabold Second Saturday  -  7:30 PM Saturday October 11th
 
Live acoustic music, beautiful setting, new friends... and cookies!  What more could a person ask for?  Seabold Second Saturday is a dream come true for musicians and fans alike.  We come from all over the area -- Kitsap, Jefferson, and King counties -- to perform our own blend of folk, blues, jazz, and classic rock.  We play without amplification in the sweetest, most resonant little one-room schoolhouse you've ever seen, so you can experience the natural warmth of acoustic music to its fullest.  We are beginners and professionals, kids and adults, serious and light, confident and stage-o-phobic.  You never know who's going to show up... expect the unexpected!
We get together the second Saturday of every month at Seabold Community Hall on Bainbridge Island.  Signup for the open mic begins at roughly 6:30 pm and ends at 7:00 sharp.  The show starts at 7:30.  Admission is $5, but kids and performers get in free.  We've got cookies, coffee, tea, and bottled water, all for ridiculously low prices.

"The Community Singers" www.communitysingers.org is a group of regular people who sing at local nursing homes, hospitals, shelters, and community gatherings in our neighborhood. And we invite you to join us!  There are no auditions and no singing experience is necessary, just a willing heart!  For more information or to get on our reminder-email list, contact: info@communitysingers.orgOur next sing-along is:
 
 Monday, October 13 from 3:30 - 4:15 PM lead by song-leader: Dave Webb
 The Madison Avenue Retirement Center (MARC)
 265 Madison Avenue South
 Bainbridge Island
 
 
We will be starting a new set of songs this fall, so if you have not sung with us before, now would be an excellent time to try it out.
