Hey Folks:
I sure am looking forward to seeing everyone again at the Jam, but I am excited about seeing some new folks that have never joined in with us at one of our Jams.
If you have never attended a MASGA Jam, I encourage you to join us and bring your Steel along with you. I promise you! you will have a great weekend listening to the best music and meet a lot of great folks.
Regards
Ken Latchum

| Jerry, if you change your strings, then that is just one more advantage you have over me! How can I ever catch up? |

Thanks to Bowie Martin - here are directions to the MASGA jam!
The address of the Jam site is: 1001 Forest Hills Road, Wilson, NC (Forest Hills Road is a major road in Wilson, so most people can tell you how to find it.)
Coming from Hwy 95 (North and South) - Take exit 121 (Hwy 264 Alternate) into Wilson. You will pass (on your right) Target, Ruby Tuesdays, Chili's. The first major road is Forest Hills Road - take a left (McDonalds on Corner). Go around a curve to your right; you will see Tennis Courts on your right and the clubhouse is right beside the Tennis Courts.
Coming from Raleigh - take Hwy 64 East, then Hwy 264 to Wilson. Take the Hwy 264 Alternate exit and it will pass over Hwy 95; follow the above directions.
From east, come to Wilson on Hwy 264 (or get on 264 approaching Wilson), and head West on 264. Take Hwy 42 exit into Wilson. Take a left on Forest Hills Road (CVS and Walgreen at intersection). Go past Applebee's on your right and a McDonalds on your left, continue around curve, and clubhouse is beside the tennis courts on your right.
