UPCOMING MEETING CALENDAR:

Here's what on the meeting calendar for the coming months:


PREVIOUS DATES	To give you a better picture of our activities, we list the musical features of our past meetings on a separate page. Click HERE.

April 12, 2026 *(2nd Sunday)* *Circle:* *Doors, Windows & Walls*	So many songs have references to windows, doors and walls that this should be an easy one. We probably should have made this three separate themes..

May 3, 2026 *Potluck Supper* + *Workshop:* *Ukuleles by David McCullough*	The May potluck is a long-standing BCFSS tradition. Entrees and sides/salads will be assigned alphabetically. A-L will bring entrees. M-Z will brings sides & salads. Setup will be at 5:30 and dinner will start at 6:00. David is both a master builder and masterful player of ukuleles, and eh share some of knowledge with us this evening.

June 7, 2026 *Circle:* *Nicknames*	Nicknames are very common, but song about them, much less so. But then keep in mind that names like, Jim, Bob, Bill and Charlie are nicknames.

July 12, 2026 *(2nd Sunday)* *Circle:* *Jewelry/Rings*	Gold and jewelry are mentioned in many songs. Sometimes they stolen. Other time awarded. Wars have even been fought over treasures.

August 2, 2026 *Circle:* *Fruits & Vegetables*	There should be no problem finding musical references to this theme.

September 13, 2026 *(2nd Sunday)* *Circle:* *Sail Away*	There is an endless catalogue of maritime songs in addition to those who may mention seafaring activities.

October 11, 2026 *(2nd Sunday)* *Circle:* *Wind & Rain*	Floods, hurricanes, blizzards, rainbows - all well documented in song.
