Don't forget about the Aloha International Steel Guitar Club convention in Winchester, Indiana either. The dates are July 13,14,15, 2006. Paul Kim from the island of Oahu, Hawaii will be the featured guest. Many of the HSGA members will also be there for three days of Hawaiian steel music. Can't wait.

I do not want to create a false impression. There would be rooms at other
motels, but then you would miss the action at the Holiday Inn Hotel and all of the fellowhship going on.
Remember if you are a steel guitar player and you want to play and have a spot on the program, then you must with haste register, quickly!! Or be left out. That would be a shame!!
If you do not want to play, bring your steel guitar and do some informal jamming. It's always fun. Anything is tolerated, I think....
Aloha,
Don[This message was edited by Don Kona Woods on 26 June 2006 at 12:45 PM.] |

Clean ... ???
Without a doubt ... the cleanest motel in the world ... !!!
Here's the main entrance ... a 100 million dollar autoclave purchased from Raytheon Aircraft .
Everyone who enters must go thru a "cycle" ...
Us HSGA members ... we're not only clean ...
We are sterile ...
